Make address labels for letters and packages can be a real challenge. This is something that has stood in the way of all sorts of people, whether they are large seller or only simply office workers who need to send a large batches of mail.
May be you do not realize it, but make address labels can be easy if you know how. The best way to do this is to compose your letter using the Mail Merge function in the first place, such as the one that come with Microsoft Word. This means that your address is stored not in the document itself, but in a spreadsheet or database. This document contains ‘field’, that is a specific area where the program knows the address should go.
Once you separate your address from your document in this way, you should find it a lot easier to create address labels. Everything you need to do is open the page and insert the address with the ‘next record’ field in between each one to tell the software not to add the same address twice. Word has a wizard that helps you do this : just go to the File menu, then to New, and then select “Mailing Label Wizard” from below “letters and faxes”. Navigate to your database, and you should be good to go .
The final step in making address labels is a physical one. Of course, you have the fancy software that can make mailing labels but unless you want to cut the addresses out from pieces of paper and use tape or glue, you must also need to get some sticky labels and place them in your printer. Of course you can always find good stationery or office supply store, but be sure to get a size that Word know about, so it can lay the label size correctly for you. You can check the label size Word has available in the last stages of the Mailing Label Wizard, after you navigate to your database – do not worry, though as some manufacturers will bother to make lables in a size incompatible with Word.
