Now that I have jumped in, what I like about DX4WIN's QSL printing is that the address label appears right after the corresponding QSL label on the label sheet, easing the envelope-stuffing step.

You did a Control P and out came your label. I see now the latest version of the RAC has several different options of printing labels, ASCII, Windows, and General. Then after you select your method of printing from these 3 options other options come up. I wonder what other people use and what is the preferred method amongst users. I have not tried this yet and would appreciate any pointers from those who have.
