DIY -如何做Avery標籤在痛擊的30秒!
最近，我的女朋友的兄弟要我做他一些講演和運輸標籤為他新的泰國餐館。 很好，我在Google沒有想繳納稅，我發現了一個好站點叫 世界標籤. 他們好比得到他們得到了相當好價格，在您 Office Depot 或 OfficeMax. 因為他們在紐約根據，我沒有必須繳納稅(我是加利福尼亞)或支付定價過高的零售價。 因為問題不是迫切的，我計算它是好去。
您應該檢查他們普通 Avery標籤 并且 運輸標籤價格好比您的地方零售店是。 世界標籤 也有許多其他興趣的標籤例如 CD/DVD標籤 或 Starburst標籤我也許在不久將來使用。
為什麼您要求？ 我從未買任何東西零售或至少以零售價。 There are so many great online stores you can visit, why bother even wasting your gas? Especially books, I saved a bunch of money by becoming an Amazon affiliate and buying it from myself. (Although I think their ToS says not to, I figure I couldn’t get caught in their gigantic system. Besides, I am not making any money being an Amazon affiliate.) Amazon has a great discount on books even if you are not an affiliate, it’s 25-30% cheaper than buying from your local Borders or Barnes & Noble.
Well, the point of the story is that I did try to use Microsoft Word to make the labels but I encountered a problem. Most of the time when I make labels, I usually end up spending 5 hours trying to align my address to the labels. It’s a big headache even if I think about it. I did used to use a label machine but that was at my old job and I was stuck with my good ol’ HP Deskjet F380.
The greatest part about this experience is that the labels I bought from World Label also provides free templates for all the labels they sell. I did try to download it from the Avery site, but they make you register and you know how I hate to put any personal information on any site or even bother registering.
Anyways, here’s how you can make Avery Labels and Shipping Labels in a whopping 30 seconds!
1) Download the free Avery Label template = 5 seconds.
2) Open up the template in Microsoft Word = 5 seconds.
3) Type in the address, then copy & paste to all the 36 label spots = 20 seconds.
4) Hit the print button! (Okay, we didn’t include the time to print since you can do other things while it’s printing.)
I like to save a lot of time when I do stuff, and these free templates just saved me like 5 hours of stupid alignment work. I wonder who’s behind the company, they did a great job of making these labels and save me a bunch of time. (Will they send me a sample? Lol…everytime I add this line, I get free stuff, isn’t that crazy?)

dude….
Dont make people download templates…. its all already built into MS Word.
To make a sheet of labels (all the same label), just do this… its quicker than the above method.
In MS Word, go to these menus: Tools > Letters and Mailings > Mail Merge
Click the ‘Labels’ tab
Then tell it what type of labels you are using. (HINT: Your most likely using Avery 5160)
Then in the big box, just type the name/address or whatever you want to appear on the labels.
Click the ‘New Document’ button and presto.
One entire sheet of labels.
Just click print and put in however many copies ya want.
Much quicker and easier than downloading and editing an already made template.

Hi Brian, good stuff, but actually that’s what I was referring to about the 5 hours. The built-in MS Word Avery labels don’t work!
Anyways, great to see you around though.
Actually found the template i needed much quicker from the World Label site than in the MS Word, plus if you dont know the product number and only the size, MS Word is worthless, and there is a much bigger selection. The PDF templates ones could be interesting to use as a guidline when I try and design in Photoshop…..
great idea, even better, cs photoshop files would be great.
