6.Repeat steps 2-4 to position each different label that you would like to on the page. To align labels with one another or create consistent gaps between labels you can use the X and Y values along with the size of the object to calculate the next position of the the image. For example if the first image is at X = 0.253 and Y = 0.0 and you wanted another image placed to the right of it, aligned to the top with 1/8 gap, you would first follow steps 2-3 to rough position the image. Now, change the X value to 3.378 and the Y value to 0.0. To get 3.378 add the original X value + the width of the current label + the gap. (0.253 + 3 + 0.125). This procedure is only necessary if you have two different labels. Follow step 7 below to array a single image or multiple images on the page with consistent gaps.

Note: To align and distribute spacing between images go to the Layout menu - Choose Arrange and Distribute. Here you can align all selected objects to the bottom and set equal spacing between the labels.

7.Array (Step and Repeat) images on a page. Before you begin this procedure align the image or objects to the bottom left of the the page, instead of the top left. This is necessary because the array anchor point is set to the bottom left. It builds the array to the right and up from that object.

First, select the image/objects you would like to array. Go to the Layout Menu - Choose Array. Set the following options on the tool bar that appears.

You will always want to choose "grid" for the array type. Set the gap between the labels. The number of rows (Y) and columns (X) will be limited by the maximum default page size of 8.5" x 13.9". You will not be able to increase rows and columns beyond these boundarys. Click Close to set array.

If all the labels are not exactly positioned at this point, don't worry. You can always adjust the position of the all the objects together using the instructions in step 4. Instead of selecting one image, draw a box around all of them. Now you will be able to move all of them together and maintain the interior gaps.

8.Set the Page Size. Once all the labels are arranged on the page you can set the page size. The page height should be the same as the total height measurement of all labels on the page. Before you set the page size make sure that the labels are oriented to the top of the current page. Select all objects by drawing a box around them. Now set the Y value to zero on the tool bar at the top of the screen. You can determine the page height by checking the height value on this tool bar. See below:

To set the page size go to the Layout menu - Select Blank Size. Set the Height to the same meas- urement as the height of all labels combined.

Important Note: By default the printer will place a minimum 1/8 inch (.125 in. 3.175mm) between each page. If you would like to match the gap between the pages with the gap between the labels you make need to add additional space onto the end of your page. For example if the space between your labels was .25 inches you would need to add .125 inches on to the end of your page.
