WinWord 2.0: Avery Laser Label Information

Last reviewed: July 30, 1997
Article ID: Q81937
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c

SUMMARY

The following is a reproduction of the information found on the back of the retail package of Avery Laser Labels. The MAILLABL.DOT file, which is a mailing label template that ships with Microsoft Word for Windows versions 2.x, only gives the Avery Product Code and a brief description of each label. The template does not list the dimensions for each label, which makes the template difficult to use if you do not have Avery brand labels.

NOTE: In Word for Windows version 6.0, Avery label dimensions are included as part of the label feature.

MORE INFORMATION

Some of the product codes listed below do not appear in the MAILLABL template listing. They are included here (designated with an asterisk [*]) with a reference for the label numbers that duplicate their layout.

Notes

There are several Avery numbers whose specifications match other numbers in the list. The different numbers are caused by packaging quantities, label colors, or similar factors that do not affect the layout of the labels.

Label sheets 5096, 5196, and 5896 contain 12 small labels at the bottom in addition to the nine referenced in the list above. These labels are not included in the automatic setup of the label sheet.

If the labels you use contain printed borders, you may need to adjust the paragraph formatting of the information contained in the table cells with the following steps:

  1. Use the MAILLABL template to set up your labels as desired.

  2. From the Table menu, choose Select Table.

  3. From the Format menu, choose Paragraph. Use the Indentation From Left setting to position the text away from the left side of the labels.

If you need to move the text down in each cell, you must do this individually for each cell. You can either add blank lines above the first line in each cell, or use paragraph formatting to set spacing above the first line in each cell.
