Using Avery Templates
Avery Templates are standardized
templates for labels, business cards, and stickers. These
templates are used with paper stock purchased from retail stores.
You will find many Avery Templates available within the
program. If there isn't one in the program though you can
make it yourself by following the instructions for Creating a Custom Paper
Stock.
Identifying Your Avery Stock
There are two basic pieces of
information you need to know in order to pick your Avery stock
correctly. The first is which type of project the stock was
made for labels, business cards, stickers, or something else.
The second item you need to know is what your Avery number
is. Your Avery Number is usually printed on the
packaging.
