Yes, I have used that approach to get around the text margin problem(s) before. Some of the other US label sizes have the same problem, so if you work with any of them, be advised.

That Rich Text editing region is just not a simple blob of text.
Unfortunately, I cant edit the source code, so I have to work around its limitations.
The problem is in printing, as you can see. Its relatively simple for me to add and save the text in GA048S08.

You've done a really good job with your label Toby. I'm really impressed.

I note you have had to use smaller fonts in the text region above the photo, so you can print two lines of text..
I can make the top a little larger, at the expense of making the bottom smaller.
Perhaps a new (additional) Template would be a good idea.
Can do that when all the furore has abated here  ;D

i can now report that it worked George.
Have quickly tried out the rich text.
Will delve more deeply later.
Thanks very much for your patience in getting this right, we have all learn't from it.
Hopefully Phill will get his working on Vista as well.

I like it George, much more flexibility with the text, getting used to the positioning of the text takes a few tries to get right, but it is workable. I note you said you may update that later. I can see we will probably change our sales labels to these, much more room for the text.

Still nothing from Phil, perhaps the goats did a runner, after what he said about them.

Many thanks

Malcolm

Glad you like it Malcolm!

Yes, I'll update it if I can figure our how to make it wrap words properly  ::)

I'm about to do a new label for A4 pages, Malcolm.
That Orion one is for a small special sheet size.

I hope Phil hasnt gone berserk with that chain saw  :o

Ah yes, happy memories. That would have been Toby  ::)
There miight very well have been more, but hes the only one who actually came right out and told me  ;D

Now who has been causing so much grief, Phil   :(  ::)
A new product, eh? Give a little hint - I'm not very good at handling suspense.

The new download will allow you to print 4 photos on A4 page (see new topic)
