As part of  this assignment,  you MUST use a graphic from the Internet.

These directions are for Word 97.

• Click on the "Start" button.
• Select  "programs
• Locate either Microsoft Office or Microsoft Word
• Open a new page in Microsoft Word
• Select "tools"
• Click on "envelopes and labels".
• Select the "labels" tab.
• Select the "options" button and scroll down the "product numbers" until you see "5164- LASER LABELS."   This is the shipping label that is required for this assignment.....  but be sure you get the one that goes with the printer you will be using (Laser or ink jet)!

• Select the "5164-Shipping" and click "OK".

• In the "address" section you will write all of the information that is required for your address labelt.  First put in your return address.  The example above shows the return address for Dr. Price at her office at The University of Alabama.
• YOU WOULD PUT IN YOUR PERSONAL MAILING ADDRESS AS YOUR RETURN
• THEN...type in the address to whom you want the item to be mailed.  Below is the example prepared by Dr. Price! You do this by simply scrolling down with the scroll bar shown.

• After the text has been added you will the click on the "new Document button".
• Then you will see the whole page, showing all of the labels on the whole page. Here's part of what a page will look like then.

• At this point look they look pretty bland.  From here you work on each label to make any changes. You might want to do BOLD, center the address to which it will be sent, add a graphic, etc. You would do that at this point. You may need to modify some of your information in order to get it all on one card. Begin modifications for the card in the upper left side of your screen. Next, work on the card in the upper right side of the screen. Work on each card from the left to the right side, in a zigzag pattern. You may wish to make other modifications such as font, style, and graphics. Just highlight what you want to modify and use your word processing skills.
• Here are the "enhanced" labels, including the Denny chime graphic!

• The information you typed will now be on your shipping labels.

To add a graphic, click on the screen where you want the graphic to be inserted. On the menu bar, point and click the mouse on "Insert". Select " picture", then choose "from file". This will give you a dialog box to choose your file.  Change this from clipart gallery to your A:\ drive and select the graphic that you have saved.  Now click "OK". After you insert your graphic, you will need to "copy" it to each card.

The picture will be surrounded by eight (8) small black squares, which are called handles. You will probably want to shrink your graphic. If the graphic still has the small boxes around it, click on the square (with your left mouse button) on the bottom right corner of the graphic and move your mouse to the left. This makes your graphic smaller, but the graphic maintains the correct proportion.

If the handles are not there, click once on the graphic and follow the above instructions. You can move/place the graphic to the left, right or in the center of your business card. While the handles are around the graphic, click and HOLD the left mouse button and move the graphic where you want it to be placed.

When you are finished with shrinking and placing your graphic on the business card, click someplace off the graphic to return to the business card modification (the handle will disappear when you click someplace outside the graphic) To return to the graphic, click on it and the handles will appear.

Save your card to your A:\ floppy disk or your C:\ drive.

Here's another finished mailing label:

These labels have 25 sheets with 10 business cards to a sheet. They are a little more expensive than some other brands due to the Avery label and quality of the card stock. You may want to cut costs and share a box of business cards with your friends.

**We highly encourage you to print your shipping labels where you have access to a color printer. This will give you the added advantage of color graphics and a more professional look.

** First, print the shipping labels on regular printer paper and look at the label alignment on the paper against a shipping label template.

**YOU MUST GO TO PRINT PROPERTIES AND SELECT MANUAL FEED BEFORE PRINTING
