Creating circle label template in ID CS4

Hello,
I am attempting to build a template for .75" circle label sheets. 120 per sheet. 10 across, 12 down. I have aprox 150 different products, and I need one page of labels per item. Is there an easy way to put artwork and text in all label fields at the same time?
I would like to create each label in Illustrator,then import it to the template. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Tyson

It sounds as if the label will be entirely composed in Illustrator - that is, you won't be laying in text over an image in ID.
To do that, I would work out, through trial(printing) and error, the exact position for the first label image on the sheet. Once you have that nailed, with the specific printer you'll be using for output, use step and repeat to copy the image to a 10x12 matrix with the spacing of the labels from the sheet.
The only quick way I can think of to do 150 such is to create all the label images with a simple filename - Product_001.eps through Product_150.eps or some such - and then rename each in turn to Product_prn.eps and use that filename in the ID document. So the cycle would be:
1) Rename first product label to ..._prn.eps.
2) Open ID document.
3) Print as many labels of that item as you need.
4) Close ID document.
5) Rename ..._prn.eps back to ..001.eps or whatever.
Go to 1, repeat.

  • Create a label template in Word Processing

    I want to create several individual labels for labeling photograps on a wall.
    I'd like to use some Avery gold labels I already have.
    Is there any way to create a word processing document in a label format so that I can type different information on each label and then print it on Avery labels?
    Thanks

    There may well be a Word Processing solution, but I think the DataBase model best suits your needs. What you're trying to do (if I understand correctly) is create a standard layout in which standard types of text — Title, Artist, Size, Technical Details, Price—appear in the same position and style on each label, though with different content each time. That makes each label a DB record, and each info category a DB field.
    In the DB module, once you create your fields ( I'd guess they'd all be Text fields) you would then use the Layout mode to design and format the size and placement to fit your label size and number of label columns per sheet. Spacing's a tad tricky, but quite do-able (print some samples first).
    The DB module has the advantage of allowing for a growing base of records and many layouts, such as a one-line listing with columns for the various fields' data, or one with a special format for data entry. It also allows for many other fields in the one database (Purchaser's Name and Address, Photographer's Phone number) that you wouldn't want to print on the labels. When it's time for next year's exhibition you select all the relevant records—using a field for "Year Shown" perhaps—and print a new batch of labels. Label size changes? Just tweak the prototype record in Layout mode.
    If this sounds daunting, there are standard address label layouts among the AW templates that you could use to see how it all works and perhaps adapt, either by "fibbing" the DB, say by filling in a Title where it has a Street Address field, or by—daringly—replacing or renaming the template's fields to suit.
    But If you're determined on the WP approach the best method I can think of is to repeatedly cut and paste into prototype label WP frames duplicated and set up in a Draw document to align with your label sheet. The DB does all that for you.

  • Brochure Template in Illustrator CS4

    I'm creating a brochure from the brochure template in Illustrator CS4. By default, it gives me 2 artboards with each divided into 3 sections. Also, the artboards are labeled as "outside" and "inside". The problem is, how do I know which side is which for each one. For example, as I look at the "outside" artboard, there is a left, center and right section, but is the right section the cover of the brochure or the left? And same for the inside? I'm confused. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
    JP

    JP,
    The right section must be the cover, corresponding/opposite to the left section of the inside Artboard which will be the first (inside section) to see when you unfold the part with those sections (beside the left outside section still folded). A quick paper folding test should prove it.
    The left/right outer/inner section (that goes inside) should be narrower by the way, or something is wrong with the template.

  • InDesign CS5- where is create new from template?

    Hi,
    I was looking for creating something new from one of the default templates of CS5, like I've done in the past with CS3 and CS4.  However I find that there doesn't seem to be an option to create new from template.
    Am I completely missing where it is?  Have they called it something else?  Have they removed the default ones completely from InDesign?

    I should perhaps amend that to don't waste time with a template for multiple labels on a sheet. If you see something that works for you as far as basic layout, make a one-up lable from it (cupy the elements from a single label into a new file sized for only one label). Get a sheet full of blank labels, place that file in the upper left position on your larger sheet layout, then use Edit >Step and Repeat... to make the grid. This is much more efficient as it allows you to edit the entire sheet at one time by editing the single label file.
    If you need to d a data merge, you can do nearly the same thing -- put a single blank label layout in the upper left position, add your merge field placeholders in that one label, and run the merge. DO NOT put anything beyond the single label layout on the sheet for a Data Merge job. Also, note that there is a bug in CS5/5.5 that will give you an incorrect multiple records merge if you try to preview. If you preview you must use Undo before the merge to go back to the pre-preview state.

  • After burning a audio CD, the Create LightScribe Label window does not show

    I found burning a LightScribe label after burning with iTunes directions. It says that iTunes works with Sonic Express Labeler. After burning the CD, a Create LightScribe Label window is supposed to appear. It does not. Why? Help!!
    HP Pavilion a1220n   Windows XP  
    HP Pavilion a1220n   Windows XP  

    No one answered his question. On HP it says:
    Creating a LightScribe label with iTunes
    iTunes works with Sonic Express Labeler to conveniently burn labels on a data CD or audio CD from iTunes. The playlist you create in iTunes to burn a disc is automatically imported into Express Labeler so that this information is available for you to use on your LightScribe label.
    NOTE: To use Express Labeler from iTunes, the data or music tracks in the playlist your are using must fit on a single CD.
    Click Start, All Programs, iTunes, and then click iTunes again.
    Burn a data or audio CD with iTunes. When the burning process is complete, click Yes on the Create LightScribe Label window.
    Make sure that Disc Label is selected in Step 1: Select Project.
    Select a label template by clicking the left or right arrows next to Layout and choosing a layout.
    NOTE: The various layouts show different amounts of playlist information. Some show only the playlist title, others show the playlist title and track names. You can edit the playlist information by clicking Disc Title to open the Edit Disc Title window.
    Click Tracks to display the Edit Tracks window. Click New to display the Track window. Enter text to identify the first track or file (you can optionally enter artist and date, or length), and then click OK.
    Repeat step 5 for each track or file on the disc.
    Click the left or right arrows next to Background to select design elements for the disc. The selections you make are previewed in the disc window.
    NOTE: If you use a color image, LightScribe burns it as a greyscale (monochrome) image.
    When you are satisfied with the appearance of your label design, insert the LightScribe disc (label-side down) into the disc drive tray and then click Print.
    From the Disc Label menu, select LightScribe 12cm Disc.
    Select a Contrast Level and then click OK to begin burning the label. The estimated time to complete the label is displayed, along with a progress bar. You can continue to work on your PC while LightScribe is burning the label.
    NOTE: A sudden bump or vibration of the computer during the labeling process may affect the quality of the label.
    His question is why this does not happen. What version of iTunes are you using? Is an upgrade to the newest version needed? I woul dlik eto hear form others who use lightscribe with itunes and how they do it.

  • How to create PDF Merging Template with Buttons & javascript?

    I am trying to create a PDF template that has buttons that request a file or email be inserted as you progress through the document.
    There will be a drop down menu that has options for different types of "customers", each type of customer will show a different set of buttons.
    Each button, once clicked will prompt for a PDF document to be inserted. Each button will be labeled what it requests. For example, "Receipt", "Title", "Insurance Policy" etc. The documents will need to be merged in the order they were received via the buttons.
    In the end, after all the buttons have requested the specific file, it will merge the selected files into one PDF document.
    Does anyone have some insight or ideas on how to get started on this? I am sure Java script will be involved.
    Thank you! Your help is appreciated!

    Hi Travis ,
    You are absolutely correct ,to get more accuracy ,you will certainly have to use java script to get this task done.
    However if you want to add buttons ,you can do it from Acrobat.
    Tools>Interactive Objects>Add Button
    Please check the button properties if it reduces your work to any extent .Go through all the options and see how it goes.

  • Label Templates or Software for Mac, Please. Avery software is no longer compatible.

    Hi Guys:
    Mac Book Pro OS 10.9.1 Maverick
    Pages 09 and Pages 13
       Avery no longer has downloadable software for Mac.  I have gone back to using Pages 09 as the new one isn't great. Label templates have always been a weakness in the Mac soft ware. I did have third party software from Avery which doesn't work with either Mountain Lion or Maverick. 
       I contacted Avery and they have an online site where you can create labels. I have limited band width so not an option. They replied back and I quote,
    "We can only recommend using Microsoft Word for MAC as anlternative if you are only able to go online for a limited time. This software has preset Avery templates available. For more inquireis with this software, kindly check with Microsoft."
    I copied this directly from there email. I had a hard time not correcting the spelling errors.
    If I wanted Microsoft Software I would have bought a PC not a Mac.
    If anyone knows of any label software out there that is compatible with Maverick, Please advice. I sure hope so.
      I create a lot of labels,  less mailing more decorative.  If there is no other option I will purchace office for Mac. I really would like to avoid that.
    My other option is to get the border---guide settings {not the right terminology} from Avery and create my own. With this fancy computer of mine I shouldn't need to.
    Any constructive help will be greatly appreciated.

    Label templates are pretty ubiquitous these days. Where is this data coming from? You generally need something that can conceptualize a database like this. Word can do that with its merge functionality. Apple Contacts has label printing built in. It all depends on the software you are using and where you are getting the data.
