Here are the settings that work for me. You need to use FileMaker (not the runtime) and log in with the master-level password to do this. Starting at the home screen, - Go to layout mode using the mode popup at the lower left. - Hit the layout popup above the rolodex in the upper left and select the label layout you want to work on. There are four of them (and you might have added more). You'll probably have to revise all four. - Select the menu item File>Page Setup (Print Setup on a Windows system) and make sure the page orientation is set to Portrait. - Select the menu item Layouts>Layout setup. The Layout Setup dialog will appear. - check the box for fixed margins. Set the top and bottom margins to .5, the left and right to .18. - Click OK. You'll get a warning asking if you want to re-calculate the margin widths. Say OK. You might get a warning saying that the margins are less than your printer can manage. Say OK> - If there are header and footer parts on the label layout, make them disappear by dragging the lower edge (a light dotted line) up to the top of the part. - Go back to browse mode and test the layout. You might have to bump the text block to the left or right to get it centered in the label. - When it's running right, go back to the home page by hitting Cmd (Ctrl on Windows) - 1. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
