If your labels aren't aligning correctly on the printed sheet, you can fine-tune the measurements for any label format without creating a new one from scratch.
How to edit label formats
- Click Administration in the top navigation bar.
- Click Label Formats from the tile grid.
- Find the format you want to adjust and click Edit on that row.
- Update any of the fields (see the field reference below).
- Click Save.

Field reference list
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Label format name | The name shown in the Format dropdown when producing labels. |
| Paper size | The size of the sheet you're printing on (e.g. A4, Letter, Legal). |
| Number of columns per page | How many labels run across the sheet. |
| Number of rows per page | How many rows of labels are on the sheet. |
| Size units | The unit of measurement for all size and margin fields (mm, cm, or in). |
| Left margin on page | Distance from the left edge of the paper to the first column of labels. |
| Top margin on page | Distance from the top edge of the paper to the first row of labels. |
| Left margin to label | Horizontal gap between adjacent labels in the same row. Enter 0 if labels touch side by side. |
| Top margin to label | Vertical gap between adjacent label rows. Enter 0 if labels touch top to bottom. |
| Label width | The width of a single label. |
| Label height | The height of a single label. |
Adjust one setting at a time. Start with the four settings that control where labels appear on the page: Left margin, Top margin, Label width, and Label height. Get these right first, then fine-tune Left margin to label and Top margin to label to adjust spacing between labels. See More Info on Label Formats for a full testing strategy.
Use exact measurements. Copy dimensions directly from your label packaging. Even a 0.1 mm difference can cause labels to shift across a full page of rows.
