Printing mailing labels
Before beginning this process, note the brand and type of labels you intend to use.
Preparing for printing
To prepare mailing labels for printing:
1) Choose File > New > Labels.
2) On the Options tab, ensure that the Synchronise contents option is selected.
3) On the Labels tab (Figure 310), select the Database and Table. Select the
Brand of labels to be used, and then select the Type of label.
Tip
If the type of label you wish to use is not on the list, use the Format tab
to define a new Brand and Type. This is beyond the scope of this
document, but is relatively simple to implement, if you know the
dimensions of the label.

4) Click the dropdown arrow under Database field. Select the first field to be
used in the label (in this example, Title). Click the left arrow button to move
this field to the Label text area, as shown in Figure 311.
