Answer 1

Use Mail Merge in word - it's under tools and then letters and mailing. It will ask you to create a master document with all the addresses - it's pretty easy to follow.

Answer 2

You need to do a mail merge. Your data should be in a word document separated by a specific character ($ is good). Select your label type, Word has almost the full set of Avery Label types, then off you go.

Answer 3

Put all your info onto an excel spreadsheet save it close it down go into word and do a mail merge its quite easy to do just follow the steps.

Answer 4

MS Word Tools mail merge

Following is a tutorial on how to make labels using Microsoft Word.

A) Creating your labels:

- Start Microsoft Word.
- Click the New Document button.
- From the Tools menu, select Envelopes and Labels.
- Select the Labels tab, click Options, select the type of labels you want to create and then click OK.
- You will need to select the Avery ® template located on the product page of the item that you are using (i.e. WL-OL875 ® is the same layout as Avery 5160 ®).
For more cross references, please see our
"Avery Cross reference chart". If there is not an Avery ® template available for the configuration that you have purchased you will have to setup a custom template (Click on options and scroll down to other/custom for directions on setting up a custom template).
- Click New Document.

B) Type and format the content of your labels.

- Turn on table gridlines (borders) so that you can see the outline of your labels: from the Table menu, choose Show Gridlines.
- If you’re creating a page of labels that will all look the same, type and format one label, then use copy and paste to create the rest of the labels (see step 5 for details on copy and paste).

C) Insert photos into your labels:

Scan your photos.
OR
Use photos that you have saved on your computer’s hard drive.

D) Resize or move each image as needed so that it fits in the label.

E) If you want to duplicate information (text and/or photos) in every label, copy and paste the information into each label:

- Select the text and/or photos you want to duplicate.
- From the Edit menu, select Copy.
- Place your cursor in a label where you want to place the information.
- From the Edit menu, select Paste.

F) Save your labels:

- From the File menu, select Save.
- In the Save As window, locate and open the folder where you want to save the labels.
- Type a name for your labels, then click Save.

G) If you want to preview your labels:

From the File menu, select Print Preview.
OR
Click the Print Preview button.
When you are done previewing, click Close to close the preview window.

Click on File and press on Print.
