Select Save as Default, and use the X button to close the Envelopes and Labels Window.
Save your document and call it Labels.
NB: When a new label size is set up we recommend testing the layout by merging a few records and printing on plain paper then comparing the result with the label paper.
To merge Gateway data to your Wordpro labels, go to the View and highlight the records you wish to produce labels for.
Right mouse click then select New Letter and then select the Labels document. Labels will preview one record per page. It is not possible to preview the labels as they will print.
Select Print Merge Labels from the mail merge toolbar

NB: If you normally use Microsoft Word as your word processor in Gateway, once you have completed your labels in Wordpro, remember to return your Word Processor setting back to Word in Tools, Options, Other.
