Any suggestions on procedures and software for printing labels from

address book?
Any help here... please!

Export the address book to a format readable by your word processing
program and go from there. Most modern WP programs have mail merge
capability, including preset templates for popular labels such as Avery.

CTRL-5 to open the address book, Tools | Export to export it. Options
include LDIF, CSV, TXT.


That certainly works.  Although I prefer to use .CSV and open in Excel
to clean out the unused fields.  Then save, then use Word to do a mail
merge to print however I like.

Sure, works well. But you can also ignore unused fields by never calling
them in the mail merge. Why bother cleaning if you don't have to?

But I do like using Excel to sort and then delete unused records, so I
can tell Word to use all.

All possible once you have a CSV or other usable file. Bit of a shame
SeaMonkey's AB isn't directly readable by an outside program, but no big
deal.


That's putting it mildly.  :-)

Considering that Mork was a character from outer space and how maligned the format is the name makes a lot of sense.
