steveg Posts: 276 Joined: 10/20/2004 Status: offline	Microsoft Word Label Template Issue - 10/23/2006 10:52:00 I have some labels that I needed to design a template for. The dimensions are as follows: Top Margin - 1.8cm Side Margin 1.4cm Vertical Pitch 4.7cm Horizontal Pitch 3.7cm Label Height 4.5cm Label Width 3.5cm Number Across 5 Number Down 6 This should give me the labels with a 2mm gap between and above/below. However, all I get are the labels with no spacing. If I increase the vertical pitch to 4.8cm and the horizontal pitch to 3.8cm I get the spaces but obviously 1mm too large. As soon as I reduce to the correct size the spacing disappears again. Is there some limitation on minimum spacing that I am not aware of? Thanks Steve

Fix the table cell sizes to what you want so that they don't expand with content, then save the page as a .dot template file. I've worked this way for years and have several templates I use on a daily basis. You have much more control doing it this way. _____________________________ I have a higher and grander standard of principle than George Washington. He could not lie; I can, but I won't.

There are also loads of templates and wizards here http://www.avery.com/us/software/index.jsp _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.
