How Do I Make Return Address Labels in Word?

Creating return address labels in Microsoft Word is a straightforward process that can be completed in just a few steps. With this tutorial, you'll learn how to create professional-looking labels with ease.

First, ensure your text fits within the label by selecting all the text using Ctrl + A, right-clicking on it, and choosing Paragraph > Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style. This will prevent any unnecessary spaces from appearing on your label.

Next, click Print and follow the prompts to print your labels. You can also add a graphic logo to your label by inserting an image from a file. To do this, go to the Insert menu in Word, point to Picture, and select From File. Then, choose the file containing your logo and insert it where you want.

To create the address block, click on Address Block and follow the prompts. You can also add custom information such as text or graphics by typing it into the Address box (text only).

If you don't have a pre-designed label template, you can select New Label to configure a custom label. This will allow you to choose from various label vendors and products.

To create identical labels, go to Mailings > Labels in Word. Ensure that the First row of data contains column headers box is selected and click OK. Then, check your list to ensure everything is correct.

For mail merge purposes, start by going to Mailings > Start Mail Merge > Step-by-Step Mail Merge Wizard. Choose Labels, then select your label vendor and product number. Next, browse for your Excel mailing list and open it. Once your addresses are set up in an Excel spreadsheet (see our previous video for guidance), creating labels from them is a breeze.

To create labels with different addresses using mail merge, follow these steps:

A. Set up your labels by clicking on the drop-down box arrow next to Label vendors and selecting the name of your label vendor.

B. Click Start Mail Merge from the ribbon and select Labels.

C. Import your addresses from Microsoft Outlook by opening Word, clicking Mailings on the menu line, and following the prompts.

With these steps, you'll be able to create professional-looking return address labels in no time. Say goodbye to messy permanent markers and hello to a more efficient labeling process this holiday season!
