Try: http://support.openoffice.org/index.html http://documentation.openoffice.org/ http://documentation.openoffice.org/Samples_Templates/index.html I'd recommend you give Peter Hillier-Brook's label templages a try. Peter uses tables vs frames and has both A4 and US sizes. http://hbsys.co.uk/openoffice/ http://hbsys.co.uk/openoffice/Just%20Templates.zip Note: perhaps you should really be using Avery 8163 instead of 5159... http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/printer-consumables/avery-address-labels/prices/ Labels (J8163) 100 sheets per pack; 14 labels (99.1 x 38.1mm) per sheet Peter's templates includes 8163 (both A4 and US), as does your standard OOo label template: File|New|Labels|: Brand: Avery A4 (or Avery Letter Size) Type: J8163 (or 8163) If you have problems with that size, adjust settings in the Format tab. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
