Fields:

  • The Name field is already set.
  • The Description Field is optional and can contain notes about the purpose of the label.
  • The Sort number is 100 by default. Making the number smaller or larger will change the label's position on the list on the right.
  • The Skip number allows you to skip down the sheets so that your label starts further down the page. This is convenient if you are printing on a sheet where some of the labels have already been used.
  • The Style selects from available Avery label sizes.
  • The Content contains your formatted text and merge field if desired.
