Hi All This past week I was given a small job to do to produce some 40-odd individual labels. I remembered that Writer has a Label Function so decided to use that. The labels were 10 to aa A4 page in two columns (Unknown type - local manufacturer) so I decided to use "user" to set-up the spacing. No matter what I tried the Label Box will *NOT* accept any label size - whatever I enter in there it changes back to 0.10cm every time!! (I also feel the box labels could be made very much more intuitive!! - ie "Horizontal Pitch" could be "Label Spacing" etc. I'm using PCLinuxOS 2013-08 and I tried with an old LO ver 3 and my ver 4.12 - same result. Has anybody noticed this or know of a work-round??
Yes! Using frames for label production has been a thorn in my hide for years now and yet it is so easy to create a table-based template - I've created dozens. Maybe you should do the same? It's a certainty that Scribus is overkill. :-)
