Label printing issue
Re: Label printing issue
So I adjust these margins so that everything prints well in each label :
there is still a vertical offset but I can print all the labels correctly: now that I have a "good impression, I save my" page layout "and I move on to printing my QSLs

Re: Label printing issue
It appears from his email that Dan has now resolved his issue and has it working OK!
I have just emailed a template to Paul which I have tested and it works fine.
It actually took me longer to measure and draw a label layout on A4 paper for testing the line up than it did to set up a template for Paul.
As I said originally printers of the same make and model do vary somewhat in the print layout so Paul might have to make some SMALL changes to the correction factors - If you do then DON’T FORGET TO SAVE THE LAYOUT.
Points to watch for
1. Dont assume a template is automatically saved, you must manually save any changes
2. Corrective factors will often need to be applied to label templates to account for differences in printer accuracy.
3. Entering a correction factor adds that correction EQUALLY to each label spacing.
4. Checking the box for a proportional correction factor increases the label spacing correction factor proportionally with each successive row/column e.g. if a value of 3 is selected the first space will be 3, the second spacing will be 6, the third spacing will be 9 etc etc etc.
5. Checking the box for an inverted proportional correction factor increases the label spacing correction factor proportionally in reverse e.g. if a value of 3 is selected the last space will be 3, the penultimate spacing will be 6, the next spacing will be 9 etc etc etc.
I will add these notes to our user guide as it is clearly not understood by users

Re: Label printing issue
Hi all
After bothering Terry quite a lot, the issue is now solved : using FoxIt insdtaed of Adobe Reader as pdf default changed one of the printer setups. Clearing that resolved my problem, and now all labels print where there are supposed to !
My fault, and my apologies !
Thanks Terry.
