How to Create a Microsoft Word Label Template

The page is to show you how easy it is to setup a label template in Microsoft Word. You will be able to print address labels, shipping labels, product labels, and more with a few clicks of the mouse.

Create Your Labels

  1. Start Microsoft Word.
  2. Click the New Document button.
  3. From the Tools menu, select Envelopes and Labels.
  4. Select the Labels tab, click Options, select the type of labels you want to create and then click OK.
  5. You will need to select the template located on the product page of the item that you have. If there is not a template available for the configuration you will have to setup a custom template.
  6. To create a new template click on the "new label" button and then type in your label dimension then select OK.

Duplicate information (text and/or photos) copy and paste

  1. Select and highlight the text and/or photos you want to duplicate.
  2. From the Edit menu, select Copy.
  3. Place your cursor in a label where you want to place the information.
  4. From the Edit menu, select Paste.

Type and format the content of your labels

  1. Turn on table gridlines (borders) so that you can see the outline of your labels: from the Table menu, choose Show Gridlines.
  2. If you’re creating a page of labels that will all look the same, type and format one label, then use copy and paste to create the rest of the labels (see step 3 for details on copy and paste).

Save your design

  1. From the File menu, select Save.
  2. In the Save As window, locate and open the folder where you want to save the labels. Type a name for your labels, then click Save.

Preview your labels

  1. From the File menu, select Print Preview.
  2. Click the Print Preview button.
  3. When you are done previewing, click Close to close the preview window.
