Or, in honor of the new year, I'd like to suggest we bump the version to 10.0 
and start working our way down to 0.0.  This plan has the following advantages:

- we would probably get the project 15 minutes of fame on Slashdot or something
- it meets Galen's monotonicity requirement, so we know he's on board
- people would find it really confusing, or maybe exciting
- when we reach 0.0, then Evergreen is over and we get to do something else

If someone could contact me off list  - need assistance in setting up spine
label and pocket labels using a laser printer and multiple rows across in a
Windows Vista environment.  I.E.  if you already have a stepsheet for
sharing - thanks!

As long as we agree on any scheme and follow it, even this could actually be 
better than using no scheme at all or having one and not following it.

I'm with you, but if we do ever go past zero and into negative
numbers, I want a green screen telnet interface for staff use.

Sara,

 

Unless things have changed with the most recent version, you can't do this
in Evergreen. I have experimented using MSWORD's Mail Merge and MS Access
and have not successful created a doc for printing spine and pocket labels
for a laser printer. Someone else may have and hopefully they will share.

 

You can use mail merge in MS word to set up a doc for laser printing just
spine labels. I do have the instructions for those and will send if you
would like to see them.

Hi all,

Just wanted to chime in with:
http://www.branchdistrictlibrary.org/professional/labels/.  I still need to
upload this on our server, as we are testing the best methods for labels as
well.  Anybody use this on a consistent basis?  It looks neat!

2013-01-07 Thread Hardy, Elaine
Forgot to mention that there is third party software that you can purchase
that will successfully do this. One of the PINES libraries began using it
recently and I believe other Evergreen libraries use it as well. I can
send details off list if you are interested.

This is very good for spine labels on the specific label stock. At least
one of the PINES libraries uses it very successfully.
