Printing Labels from a List

For example, the rows in the following spreadsheet:

will print two three-line labels: one for DYMO and one for Esselte.

DYMO Corp.

44 Commerce Road

Stamford, CT 06902

Esselte

48 South Service Road

Melville, NY 11471

Text File

Many programs can create a text file, such as a Text Editing program, exporting from a database application, and so on. When you export text from a database, you usually create a delimited file with each entry separated by comma or tab characters and a carriage return/line feed at the end of each entry.

Smart Paste recognizes the delimiter characters and will insert a line break on the label. When a comma is used as a delimiter, make sure any commas that you want to print on the label are enclosed in quotation marks. The carriage return/line feed will start a new label.

NOTE The separator character may be different for countries other than the US. When using Smart Paste, the list separator character is based on the Windows language being used.

For example, the following lines of text (delimited using commas):

DYMO Corp., 44 Commerce Road, “Stamford, CT 06902”

Esselte, 48 South Service Road,“Melville, NY 11471”

will print two three-line labels: one for DYMO and one for Esselte.

DYMO Corp.

44 Commerce Road

Stamford, CT 06902

Esselte

48 South Service Road

Melville, NY 11471

In another example, Smart Paste prints the following three lines of text as three two-line labels:

Pencils, 3 for $1.00 Pens, $0.50 each Erasers, $1.00

Pencils

3 for $1.00

Pens $0.50 each

Erasers $1.00

Multi-Line Text from a Word Processor

When copying text from a word processor, you will typically have multi-line text. In this case, the text for each label is separated by either a single blank line or a carriage return/line feed.
