Jeff, I also use Avery 8160 and found that I had to modify the settings. Under the custom label setting I set the "spacing left" to 0.2, "spacing top" to 0.65, "horizontal shift" to 0.1 and the "vertical shift" to 0.1. I am using Arial font. Without the shifting I was getting the printing cut off on the left side and top of the labels in the third row. I am also new to using the program and there may be other ways to adjust the printing but this seems to work for me.
I only use two QSO's per label and I would think you could probably adjust the offsets to get three QSO's per label. Hope this helps. 73, Roger, W7VV / ZK1VVV -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jeff Maass Sent: Saturday, January 04, 2003 5:27 PM To: DX4WIN Mailing List Subject: [Dx4win] QSL Labels and Avery 8160 Labels After getting all my recent PJ2/K8ND 160m QSOs imported to DX4WIN, I'm printing QSL info labels for the first time. I am using DX4WIN with a HP Deskjet 990Cse printer and Avery 8160 labels. I'm having a problem that doesn't seem specifically related to DX4WIN, but to something else in setting up for these labels. Perhaps someone can share similar experiences and solutions? >From Word (Office 2000) or DX4WIN, the labels do not align with the labels on the sheet. The first is off (too far down by 1/4-inch or so), but they *all* seem spaced incorrectly relative to each other, as if the 8160 template were wrong in both Word 2000 *and* DX4WIN (I know - unlikely). Even if the first label were aligned correctly, each subsequent rows would "walk" down, with each label starting lower in the label space. There could be some misconfiguration of the printer, but I would think that this should be handled by the printer driver based on the template rather than requiring any kind of manual setup? Any ideas?
