I have someone wanting a return address on a 60/sheet label (label #5195), but cannot find it anywhere in the labels I have. I'm assuming I need to update my Avery labels in Corel, but I've no idea where to go to do that, Corel site or Avery site?

Go to the Avery site first.
In the design don't crowd the edges of the label with text.
This will give you a "buffer" zone on the text so it never spills out over the label border no matter if the printer does a bit of sloppy paper handling.

I will make my own eventually, although for the smaller labels, It's a bit harder I find. But anyway, I'd like to use the label I downloaded from the Avery site, how do I "install" it in the Labels area in Corel x4 OR does Corel sell layouts for avery labels?
From google it says 2/3 x 1 3/4....
that will be 0.66" x 1.75".... in inches of course!
These are the settings I used for Avery 8195, the ink jet equivalent to 5195. (2/3" x 1.75" /15 rows/ 4 columns/ 60 per page). I also used the MS Word template from Avery's site to figure this out, but you need to remember that Word uses tables to lay out labels, so to get the correct gutter you have to check the narrow column size between the labels. Works for me, but print a test page to be sure.

Patti,
I see your point on the gutter width and I concur. This would change the side margins also. Thanks for setting me straight. Now I am not sure that MS Word is correct on the Top/Bottom margin. Mathematically it would be closer to 0.5005 using 0.6666 as the label height if you wanted equal margins as Avery normally designs. Although I don't think the difference would matter much over a sheet of labels.
Am I looking at that correctly?

I've had SUCH a crazy busy week, I've been meaning to come back here and tell you ALL how wonderful you are. This site rocks. I ended up making my own template and it worked well. I printed out one page and everything was just slightly too high on the label, and I moved it down just a smidge and it worked well.
Thank You SO much. Now I know what to do if I run into this again. Always something happening hey?
Have a wonderful weekend!
