How to Make a Custom Sized Label On Microsoft Word 2007
Introduction
When making labels on Microsoft Word
2007 there are an impressive array of label manufacturer templates to choose
from. These templates will allow you to fit the text you choose perfectly
onto your label sheet.
But what if you have a label sheet without
a Template? Say it is made by company Blah, Blah, Blah and Blah,
Blah, Blah is not an option on Word 2007? You'll need to make a custom
label with that fits the size of your label sheet.
This article will teach you how to make
a custom sized label on Microsoft Word 2007

Step 1
Open Word on your PC.
Step 2
Select "Mailings" at the top
of your computer screen.
Step 3
Then choose the "Labels" button / Icon. This is located upper left region of your screen
Step 4
Click the "Options" button on the window that appear.
Step 5
In window that appears you'll notice
a box next to "Label Vendors". Clicking the drop down arrow
select "Other/Custom".
Step 6
Then what I do is click anywhere in the section titled "Label Information". This won't look like an area you would click in but you can.
Step 7
A screen will appear with a lot of dimensions. Measure your label sheet to determine the proper dimensions. Plug in these dimensions. Also remember to include the number of labels running across the page (i.e. "Number Across") and he number of labels running down the sheet (i.e. "Number Down")
