Cheers, thats great, thanks for the help. Can you use these in a laser printer, does not say in the description.

Well, the box here says 'removable laser labels', so maybe I shouldn't be using them in an inkjet

Laser are ok in inkjet. The reverse is not always always true.

I've always used Avery Sticky Labels 6 to a sheet for my bottles, while on their site over the weekend I found they have very good free software for label design.

It allows to insert picture, create bar codes serial numbers for each label and all in all its pretty damn good. Works with a master label plus individual labels at the same time.

Its called Design Pro lite is in both Pc and Mac versions.

I did several trial runs to xps printer and was very impressed with the results.

The help files are pretty decent.(well I managed to follow them).

Downloaded and installed this - does it have any wine labels templates (well any tamplates at all?) or do themcome with the full product?

[goldseal]

I don't use the templates, apart from the plain one which matches the label size. My labels are pretty basic. The software should allow you to import images, so it should be quite straightforward to knock up wine labels.

righto..

Help. I have a piccy as the background and it creeping down the page - any idea's.

By that I mean there is a little bit more 'bottom' [of previous label] in the top of the next label down.

[goldseal]

Sounds like your software thinks the label is a bit deeper than it actually is.

[Cellar_Rat]

Calibrate printer option, moves the image about on the page.

Sorted.

Thanks for everyone's help with this - produced some good labels. One BBQ down, One wedding to go.
