Ah, you're right, I did misunderstand. My apologies. On my system (2.4.1 OOo - linux) I select a PDF printer w/A4 and then in the File|New|Labels I select Avery A4/C9146 Photo Quality Label (Full Page) and in the wizard it shows 21.00cm x 29.70cm (1x1). So I then click the New Document button and the result is (from Format|Page): Format: User Width: 21.04cm Height: 29.74cm Left: 0.00cm Right: 0.02cm Top: 0.00cm Bottom: 0.02cm This (slightly larger size) does the same on a letter sized document and I think that it is so that the template/frames will print to the edge of the top & bottom to include all labels. Can you select the same Avery A4/C9146 Photo Quality Label on your's and see if you get the same/different? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
