Printing custom labels from contacts

How do you print labels with a different header than just the persons name? I would like to address holiday labels to read:
"The Smith Family"
123 Cherry St.
Denver, CO 80210
Rather than the contact name only:
"Jane Smith"
123 Cherry St.
Denver, CO 80210
Can I create a field that allows me to put it as the address header rather than having to use the contacts first and last name only?

Hi gordonprop,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to change the name field on a label. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

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.

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.

Is there a Template for mailing labels from contact lists

Is t here an app to use contact list to print lmailing labels?

Hello Jb1947,
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.
Contacts (Mavericks): Print contact information
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15095
Print contact information
Select contacts or a group. If contacts in a group have multiple email addresses, street addresses, or phone numbers, you can choose which to print.Select addresses for group members
Choose File > Print.
Choose the print style from the Style menu, then set related options.If you don’t see the Style menu, click Show Details.
Mailing labels:
Click Layout and choose a label type from the Page menu. To set page margins, 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 menu. Set any other Label options.
Thanks for reaching out,

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.

I just updated my Ipad 2 last night with iOS 7.04 now I can't print shipping labels from Paypal. I downloaded a different browser, Dolphin, per Paypal's suggestion. Still can not print. It says it has lost connection with the server.help!.

Hello! I updated my Ipad now I can not print USPS labels from Paypal. I used my boss' Ipad not updated and worked fine. I am dependent on my Ipad to print these labels for me. I can print anything else I want, like email or packing slips. Any thoughts? I would go back to the previous version if anyone knows how to do that.

Print HU label from Outbound delivery using output determination

Hi,
We have a business requirement to print HU labels from outbound delivery. The steps followed are
1) User executes VL02N
2) User clicks on packing
3) Material is entered to pack. HU is automatically generated.
4) After saving the delivery, output message is triggered.
Output determination is as follows
1) An Z output type is created.
2) Form entry and smartform name is assigned to this output type
Issue:
The issue is when the output message is triggered and the code in the form entry is executed, the handling unit (from nast) is not yet committed in the database. Since it is not updated in the database table, we cannot get any handling unit data to be printed.
Any inputs on how to print HU labels using output determination from outbound delivery is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi Surya,
Thanks for the reply. But, my question was how to print labels from VL02N when i pack a material on this delivery.

How to extract custom label from page item

I´m trying to extract custom labels from a page item -a rectangle in this case-, inside a document observer:
     UIDRef pageItemRef=iCommand->GetItemList()->GetRef(0);
     InterfacePtr<IScript> script(pageItemRef,IID_ISCRIPT);
     IScriptLabel::ScriptLabelKeyValueList tags = script->GetTags();
as sugested here -> http://forums.adobe.com/thread/747080?tstart=0 but I always get script=nil
Regards

I solved.
Problem was that I was trying to get IScript interface once observer command was in kDone state -it was a delete command-.
Thus, page items did not exist anymore when I was trying to get their custom labels.
I changed it, making test during kNotDone state.

Help...trying to print address labels from an excel document. I only need info from some of the columns. Using Avery labels.

Help...I'm trying to print address labels from an existing Excel document that opens fine in Numbers. I don't want to print everything from the spreadsheet. The Avery template and site were no help. Any suggestions?

If you do not need all the excel specific items you can just write it to a spreadsheet using the write to spreadsheet file vi's.
If you want to go the excel route you will have to use active x. you can see a lot of examples on the excel board under the breakpoint forum. please post a sample of how you want your data to look and I can maybe help explain what options you have. and also oyu do not necesarily need the report generation toolkit.

Print headshot Photos from Contacts

Apple, thank you for the 10.8.3 update, but please bring back the ability for us to print Headshot photos from Contacts (See "Attitributes" when printing). I need the ability to create Photo Directories. I am sure others used this feature as well. It worked great BEFORE Mountain Lion. Even though "Photo" is check-marked in "Attributes," it still will not show the headshot photo. Again, I used this feature at work in order to create Photo Directories. I am a choral conductor and my choirs have been bugging me for an updated Photo Directory. Please bring back this feature.
