    Question Reports and Labels in 2017

    We just upgraded our AlphaCAM from 2012 to 2017. I really love it, but I can't figure out how to generate reports and labels. I can get into the report designer but I also need to format my labels to Avery labels. I know there's a way to do it, but I feel report designer is anything but intuitive.

    Does anyone know how to

    A. Generate reports and labels in the new version and

    B. format labels to Avery labels?

    Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated!

    Have you got the example layouts. They should install in Licomdir/Reports. Failing that you can find them on the DVD 2017R1\ExampleFiles\Report Layouts.

    I found those, but I didn't see Avery labels in there

    You have soome options for paper size in the Property Grid>Page Settings on the bottom righ. There is a load of standard sizes and a Custom option. I would pick an example Layout file that is close to what you want and then customise it.

    Thanks all. I ended up trial and error-ing it until I got it.
