Christmas Labels Evan 12/3/2008 6:58:17 PM I have created Holiday Mailing Labels using mail merge and added clip art to the label. I have tried using every variation on the picture layout options but the text jumps to the top edge of the label leaving the bottom half empty. Anyone know of a way to keep the text vertically centered after adding the clip art? Also how does one automatically add to clip art to all the other cells?

Re: Christmas Labels Evan 12/3/2008 9:59:58 PM Unfortunately Graham Mayor does not address how to prevent text from jumping when clipart is added.

Re: Christmas Labels "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" <dkr[ at ]REMOVECAPSmvps.org> 12/4/2008 6:55:17 AM Format the first paragraph with space before it. The Propagate labels button will copy the complete setup (including the clipart) from the first label to the other labels. -- Hope this helps.

Re: Christmas Labels "Graham Mayor" <gmayor[ at ]REMOVETHISmvps.org> 12/4/2008 7:27:40 AM It appears you have the graphics layout property set to 'in line with text' When so configured they behave like text and so will inevitably move your text if added later. Put the graphic in place first and set a wrap option to something other than 'in line' either to allow the text to wrap round the graphic or write over it. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Evan wrote: [Quoted Text] > Unfortunately Graham Mayor does not address how to prevent text from > jumping when clipart is added. > > > "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: > >> See the article "Graphics on Labels" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's >> website at >> >> http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm >> >> >> -- >> Hope this helps. >> >> Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my >> services on a paid consulting basis. >> >> Doug Robbins - Word MVP >> >> "Evan" <Evan[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:9140E9FD-FA45-4FA2-96AD-167376308A7B[ at ]microsoft.com... >>> I have created Holiday Mailing Labels using mail merge and added >>> clip art to >>> the label.
