Not as far as I know - Well there are a bunch of other possibilites though.
You could use MS word or Wordperfect to print the labels from a mail merge - Should be possible using blank paper to get a geometric layout just right, then setup your printer with some blanks to try it. Alternatively, access or excel (which are better at handling lists) might give more acceptable results. Also, the print software from Avery labelling co is pretty good as I remember : we used it in lab environment to print off all kinds and sizes of labels for chemicals :-) Finally, if you somehow got stuck with providing this as a web based solution, CSS might have some answers : look up on google terms like 'page-break-before' , 'page-break-after' , 'margin-width' etc - these style attributes can offer some control over printing of html documents (the page break mean the printer wil advance to the next sheet). Use CSS-P to layout the page first in a recognised print unit - pt, in, mm etc. PHP should be the least of your problems with this. Cheers, Neil Smith.
