How to use

The basics

• Type each label as a paragraph: one or more lines, no blank lines inside.
• Insert a blank line to move to the next label cell.
• Empty paragraphs skip a cell (useful if you've already used the first few labels on a sheet).
• The dashed outlines on the preview are the label bounds. They don't print.

Sheets supported

Avery 5160	Address labels, 1" x 2-5/8", 30 per sheet (3 columns x 10 rows)
Avery 5163	Shipping labels, 2" x 4", 10 per sheet (2 columns x 5 rows)
Avery 5164	Shipping labels, 3-1/3" x 4", 6 per sheet (2 columns x 3 rows)
Avery 5871	Business cards, 2" x 3-1/2", 10 per sheet (2 columns x 5 rows)

Sizing

• Auto-fit picks the largest size that fits each label's content. Different labels can end up at different sizes.
• Text never wraps on its own - it scales down to fit the width. Put line breaks exactly where you want them.
• Manual applies one point size to every label. Anything that doesn't fit is flagged.
• Use the Inner pad slider to add breathing room inside each label so the text doesn't kiss the cut edge.

Adding an image

• Click Add image and pick a JPG or PNG. The same image is placed on every label (a logo or return-address mark).
• Use the little position grid to send the image to one edge - top, bottom, left, or right. The text fills the rest of the label.
• Fit shows the whole image; Fill crops it to cover its zone. Clear removes it.
• Your image stays on your computer. It is read locally and embedded straight into the printout - it is never uploaded to any server.

Before printing

• Choose Save as PDF or your label printer.
• Set scale to 100% (also called "Actual size"). Do not let the browser "Fit to page."
• Set margins to None (or "Default" - the page already declares zero @page margins).
• Print one test sheet on plain paper first and hold it up to a label sheet to verify alignment.
