WinWord 2.0: Avery Dot-Matrix Label Information

 Last reviewed: July 30, 1997
Article ID: Q81938
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 Dot Matrix Labels. The MAILLABL.DOT file, which is a mailing label template that ships with Microsoft Word for Windows versions 2.0 and 2.0a, gives only the option to choose Laser Labels when running Microsoft Windows version 3.0. The template provides 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, the dimensions of the Avery labels are included as part of the label feature.

Note: If the labels you use contain printed borders, you may need to adjust the paragraph formatting of the information contained in the table cells as follows:

  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 move 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 simply add blank lines above the first line in each cell, or use paragraph formatting to set spacing above the first line in each cell.
