Labels

Using Windows XP and Microsoft Word. When making labels, are the fonts pre-set or can they be changed? The size font on my shipping labels is like size 8..

Hey Rocky1-

When you go into Word you choose Tools - Letters and Mailings - Envelopes and Labels...

Type what you want on the label and customize the options for the labels you have. Then click on "New Document". This will take you to the main window in Word. From there you can press ctrl+a to select all the text and change the font color and size or whatever else you want to do. I make lables at Christmas and sometimes add picutes. Once you edit what you want just choose go back to: Tools - Letters and Mailings - Envelopes and Labels... and the press "Print".

Hope this is what you needed.

Thank you so much for the assistance..I can now resize the fonts, change colors, etc. But how do I make a single label..

Hey Rocky-

If you want to just make one label the easiest way is when you send the labels to the new document for editing you can just delete all other text except the one you want to print. It shouldn't print any border lines so all that wil print will be the one label. You can use the same sheet of labels over and over again too. All you have to do is figure out which label on the paper you want to print and leave only that text there and the rest of the sheet blank. You don't waste any labels that way.

Good luck!
