I'd like to print multiple different labels on different column /
row combinations on the Avery sheet. (Note: I do not want to print
30 iterations of the same label on a sheet.)
As it is, I can readily click through to T*ext Document > File >
New > Labels* and once there get the dialog box, click on various
column and row selections, click single label and click new document.
It's odd that you should choose "Single label" if your need is to
print multiple labels.
That is amazingly inefficient.
True.
I am sure I am missing something simple.
I think you are.
How do I enter two different labels in two different label fields,
(or three, or four, or five or six, for that matter) without having
to reinitialize the "LABEL" function?
On the Options tab of the Labels dialogue, for Distribute choose
"Entire page" but remove the tick from "Synchronise contents". The
fact that you will see all thirty labels outlined in the sheet is no
problem, of course: all that will print is whatever you choose to
insert in any of the label fields.
I was readily able to enter multiple labels on a single label sheet
with both Word and WordPerfect.
And now - I hope - with OpenOffice.
I trust this helps.
