   Database Management FAQ : Print Labels : Create Custom Label

Question/Topic: How to define new custom label?



Other questions:
Can I define Avery label type that is not in your Avery (North America) or Avery (Europe) list?
Can I define labels for other label vendors?


Not all Avery label types are predefined in our product. There are other label brands that are not ready to use. It does not mean that you are not allowed to use them. Many labels you can easily predefine and use with our organizers.



  • Using your label sheet measure margins and distances. The below picture shows you the margins and distances you will have to measure.
    customize label, label measurements explanation
    Label Width: the width of the label
    Label Height: the height of the label
    Label Pitch Horiz.: Label Width + Horizontal Gap (horizontal distance between labels)
    Label Pitch Vert.: Label Height + Vertical Gap (vertical distance between labels)
    Left Margin: left page margine
    Top Margin: top page margine
    Number of labels Across: number of labels across the label sheet
    Number of labels Down: number of labels down the label sheet
    Note: Label Width and Label Height are printed on the Label Box. Sometimes you can find other label parameters.
  • Measure all margins and distances in inches (you can measure in centimeters see below).
  • For example for the Avery label: AV 6577, parameters are:
    Label Width (W) = 3.0 (inches)
    Label Height (H) = 0.62 (inches)
    Label Pitch Horiz. (P.H.) = 3.752 (inches)
    Label Pitch Vert. = 0.62 (inches) (Note: the same as Height because Vertical GAP = 0)
    Left Margin (L) = 0.9 (inches)
    Top Margin (T) = 0.5 (inches)
    Across = 2 ( 2 labels across)
    Down = 16 ( 16 labels down)
    Note: Label Height and Label Pitch Vert. are the same because Vertical Gap is zero.
