Default Changing label size of mailing list w/o having to cut and paste

I want to convert a current mailing label list to a larger label (Avery
5163). Is there a way to do this without having to cut and paste the data
from the current label to the new label?

No. It's a lot easier when you maintain that information in a spreadsheet
then do a mail merge into whatever size label you want. Because you don't
have that, copy and paste will be the fastest way.

Converting the current label document to a mail merge source might still be
quicker than cut/paste. See
