How do I customize mailing labels from Contacts OS 10.9

I would like to print an address label with a format like:
"The " <firstname> " " <lastname> " Family
<home address>
or
<firstname> "and " <spousename> " " <lastname"
<home address>
I'd also like to still use the Avery Label presets that are there.  I'd just like to customize the content printed for each label.
Thanks

From Contacts Help:
Choose File > Print.
Choose the print style from the Style pop-up menu, and then set related options.
If you don’t see the Style pop-up menu, click Show Details.
Mailing labels: Click Layout and choose a label type from the Page pop-up menu. To set page margins and gutter space between labels, and how many labels to print per page, choose Define Custom.
Click Label and choose the address to print from the Addresses pop-up menu (for example, print a label for each contact’s home address). Use other Label options to specify the print order, include a company for business mailings or a country for international mailings, or add a graphic.

    I understand that you want to print mailing labels from your Contacts. If your MacBook Pro is running Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), there is a way to print mailing labels directly from the Contacts application. The information you need is located in the following article.

  • How to print editable mailing labels from Address Book?

    I am once again working on Holiday Mailing Labels (450 pple) and needing to export editable mailing labels from a smart group in my Address Book.  but I can only print out non-editable pdf labels.  Is there a way around this?  Editable labels are vital!! Can I export my contacts to a file that can be imported into Microsoft Word Labels Mail Merge?

    I have the same problem. After much searching for easy solutions, I just added a user account on my mac, and use the address book/contacts for the end of year mailings. This meant copying, manually, a lot of contacts! At the same time as they were entered the edits were made. I can make edits ongoing within these lists without changing the contacts in my personal user account. There oughta be a better way!!!

  • When printing mailing labels from Contacts how do I change the label size?

    I want to print mutliple labels from a group in Contacts. I can print 20 labels per page but I want to print 14. I have tried every option in the pop up window but nothing lets me change the label size, 

    Hi 786menzies,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that your print jobs from Photosmart 5520 seems very small.
    The font size is controlled by the software program that the document was created in, for example any Microsoft Word document that you send to the printer the font size would have been chosen in Microsoft Word.  I've included two different documents on how to change the print settings; one for Mac and one for Windows 8.  These documents will show you the process on changing print settings if not the actual steps as you may not be using one of the operating systems mentioned.

  • How can I print a full page of a single mailing label from Contacts

    I am trying to use Contacts to print a full page of avery labels for a single contact.  The only thing I can get it to do is print one label in the upper left corner of a page of Avery Labels.  I can print a full page of DIFFERENT contacts, but not a full page of a Single contact.  Any ideas?

    Are you using DesignPro from Avery? You should.
    It gives you the option to print individual labels or all the same:

    Eminently possible in Pages. Get a template (or employ the one used with MS Word) and look up Merge Fields in the Pages user guide.

    How do I make mailing labels from my contacts?  Apple support says it can not be done but I can't believe it.  There must be a way...does any one know how?

    If you are storing your contacts in the Address Book App, there is definitely a way to make and print mail labels.
    Here's how.

  • How do I do a mail merge from contacts to Pages?

    The old version of Pages allowed a simple mail mail merge with Contacts.  The "What's New in Pages" document says you can still mail merge from Contacts, but I'll be hanged if I can figure out how.  Will someone please tell me how to mail merge from Contacts to Pages?  Otherwise, I've got to learn a new word processor.

    There is no built-in mail merge feature with Pages v5. Apple only supports mail merge if you are willing to either create your own AppleScript application or use pre-written AppleScript solutions. Examples are here and here. Pages community discussions about these are here by the developer.
    If you are unwilling to do engage in AppleScript, then fall back and use Pages '09 v4.3.

  • How can I print address labels from numbers spread sheet

    How can I print address labels from numbers spread sheet

    CAB,
    The 5163 template has the following dimensional specs:
    Dimensions & Info
    Length: 4.00000"          Height: 2.00000"
    Top Margin: 0.50000"          Bottom Margin: 0.50000"
    Left Margin: 0.18000"          Right Margin: 0.18000"
    Hor. Spacing (gutter): 0.14000"          Vert. Spacing (gutter): 0.00000"
    Intended Use: Mailing Labels, Shipping Labels, Address Labels
    There's a great vendor site with this data readily available, better than the Avery site in my opinion. But, you can get the same info in the Contacts Print dialog pane.
    You can grab a template matching these dimensions from that vendor site, Copy the table after opening the Word Template in Pages and drop the into a blank Numbers Sheet.
    I found that Sheet side margins of 0.15" worked better than 0.18. For some reason the table wanted to flow to the next page to the right with 0.18". Turning off the Headers and Footers and setting Top and Bottom Margins to 0.5" worked well. These adjustments are made in the Sheets Inspector.
    So, that will put the template you specified into a Numbers document and you can print labels properly aligned from there. Since your problem statement is a bit lacking in detail, that's all I can offer you at this point.

  • Printing Mailing Labels from Address Book

    Stupid question, but one that is driving me crazy.
    How do you print a sheet of mailing labels from Address Book but when the entire sheet of labels is the SAME label?
    I can print labels successfully in address book, can select the label type and number, etc.
    However, when I select a single contact, I can't find a way to print up an entire sheet of labels (e.g. 14) of all the same contact - it only prints one label of the single contact.
    Please help! I know it must be a simple fix but can't find it anywhere to select as an option.

    OK, weird that this morning (one day after you posted this question) I had the same question. I just want to print some return address labels for my own company. While I haven't been able to find a software based way to do it, I did think up a workable (if a bit ridiculous) hack. Copy the address you want to fill the sheet of labels with however many times there are labels on the sheet and select those however many copies and click print! I created 30 copies of my own company's address in Address Book, selected them, and printed a sheet of labels without problem. A bit dumb, but it works!
    Hope that helps.

  • Print sheet of same label from contacts

    How can I print an entire sheet of the same address label from contacts?  I am trying to print return address labels.  I can only figure out how to print one per sheet.  Anyone help?

    An alternative is to use an address in the Contacts application and the print dialog there to print the selected address on Avery labels. The printer dialog will of a selectable Style category. Choose Mailing Labels. You will have Layout and Label tabs. The former will allow you to select the Page as Avery Standard and the stock number (e.g. 5161) from a list of choices.
    This is simpler than using the same label template from Avery, creating/duplicating one address label, and printing.
    There is no built-in mail merge in Pages v5.

  • Start Position When Printing Labels from Contacts

    I'm trying to print addresses to a half-used sheet of mailing labels using Contacts, but the app only lets me start with the Column 1, Row 1 position.  Is there a way to start printing from some other position on the sheet?

    You are welcome. What I used to do when faced with this problem was either move the labels to the top or reverse the way the labels were feed into the printer.
