I'm trying to layout a label ~ 2 columns x 7 or 8 rows on an A4 sheet, no merge or anything clever, just a repeated Avery label on A4. I choose the appropriate label ~ J8162 or J8163 ~ and the new new document opens the correct size label outline for a single label.
I follow the instructions on the online help (although I am confused whether the letter layout should be used even for an A4 label page - perhaps the instructions could be made clearer on that point? changing it doesn't cure the behaviour I'm reporting):
You cannot use label styles if a drawing contains multiple pages.
For best results, choose Letter paper size and Portrait orientation before applying a label style.
The problem is, it wont print a full page ~ print preview and print don't produce a page with multiple labels ~ just one impression in the centre of the page.
Is this a known issue (in which case, is there a work-around?) or am being slack?
Thanks

What I do is setup the appropriate gutter margins (Print Preview), and how many up under print preview save it as say 2 wide 7 high 'Avery xxxx" simple. My label size in this case one up is 4" x 1.33" 2 wide, 7 high. .1525 margins side, .1525 gutter, .88 margin top and bottom. (Avery 5162)
There is a size lock toggle I needed to click because corel default wants to adjust the size to fit in the print margins.
That being said, the other way does work for me too.

Let me offer a simpler solution...just in case it was overlooked. BEFORE you set up your labels, make sure that the All Pages option is selected.
It's very easy to overlook -- been there, done that.
