For example, on
Avery 5260 sheets.
Hi Carl,
I don't suppose
this is something covered in the U2 library ?
In the
past, I've mostly used Open Office for this particular task,
because it already has and recognizes templates for at least a
few of the popular Avery sheets. That would be contrasted
with single #10 envelopes, for which I've used NB, with my own
individual-use address templates -- when printing directly to
the envelope. But I've just run into some problems.
The
post office changed a standard address format on me, both in
its 3-line and 4-line incarnations. When I went to modify the
existing Avery labels in OO, I discovered that there did not
seem to be anything like the AL (adjust line leading) that I
used to employ in Xy; there was only the choice between
single, 1.5, and double spacing. All I could do was change
the font and/or the font size. It's a mess, comes out looking
bad. Lots of trial and error would be required, to come up
with a suitable replacement.
I'm
amazed to find that NB apparently does not come equipped with
some Avery label templates ? If so, that would seem to be a
major oversight. Searching their Help for various related
keywords did not bring up anything useful. I tried to import
the Avery one from OO into NB, but the format is not
recognized. I'm not sure how Xy could fare any better in that
department, with or without U2. Unless you had run up against
this issue some time ago and hardcoded something for this
that did not require recognizing a strange format ?
