Please log in for more thread options Hi I bought 1 package of Panduit's Laser/Inkjet labels (S100X150YAJ) to print cable labels. Am I now forced to buy Panduit's Easy-mark label printing software to successfully print on the labels or are there other options that will enable me to print on the lable sheets? TIA Paolo | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options No. You can use any word processor to make the label. You might be able to make a new label layout to your dimensions (Look for how to print Avery labels and then look for a "new" or "custom" choice.) I was never able to find way to make Word generated numbers on lines, 1 ... 10000 I use a Unix shell script, below to generate numbers from 1 to as high as I need in an ASCII file, use a programmers editor to add the additional text on each line and then use a word processor to make a table-formatted page to make as many columns as you need. The PITA is to get the vertical pitch right, to the pixel. The last time I did it, MS Word wasn't a precision tool for that. Lots of trial and test. Print on plain paper and then register to a page of Panduit material and hold it up to the light to see how close you are. #!/bin/sh if [ $1x = x ]; then echo Usage: counter.sh limit exit 1 fi i=0 while [ $i != $1 ]; do i=`expr $i + 1` echo $i done -- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m Don't blame me. I voted for Gore. Proudly then, even more so in hindsight. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

If you are using a Unix/Linux system already, do look at glabels. Label geometry is done per-label so you don't have to make all the text line up for the whole page. There are provisions for defining your own layout if none of the (hundred or so) predefined ones fit. carl -- carl lowenstein marine physical lab u.c. san diego clowenst@ucsd.edu | ||||||||||||||||||||||

PowerPoint developed for brain dead managers) actually is an even better tool for making labels and biz cards. Again, use the ALT key for alignment | ||||||||||||||||||||||
