[Solved] Avery 5160 Label templates

Post by Corkran »

I currently have a new windows 11 computer. My old Computer has an Avery A4 5160/8160 template.
1. Where are the label templates stored
2. do you have a 5160 template avaiable for Windows 11 download.
3. Can I copy the windows 10 template from my old computer to my new one?

In Writer, select File > New > Labels. 5160 and 8160 are under Avery Letter Size, not Avery A4. Is this what you need?

It is also possible to use templates downloaded from the Avery website. These templates are tables whereas the wizard creates tiles of text frames.
With a downloaded table template you would fill out one table cell with the required fields and fixed text and finally copy the edited cell content across the other cells.
There is one major glitch when using database fields: Each cell except the last cell needs to have a trailing <Next Record> field which triggers the next record from the underlying database.
Please, edit this topic's initial post and add "[Solved]" to the subject line if your problem has been solved.
