Mailing Label

The Ad hoc Report generator can also be used to generate labels very easily. For this purpose the ad hoc layout must be a .rpt file with labels.

In the category "Labels" the format of the labels can be selected from a list of predefined formats or defined by the user.

Custom Mailing Label

The width and height of the labels or their spacing influence the number of labels that fit on a report page. By default, the labels are arranged column by column, i.e. they are first placed in the first column from top to bottom. Then, if there is enough space left, another column is added to the right of it. With the option "First right then bottom" the labels can be arranged row by row, i.e. first in the 1st row, and so on.

The user-defined settings for the page margins overwrite the values defined in the layout and thus also influence the number of labels per page.
