The Label/Envelope/Fax feature acts like a contact manager that will collect all your contact information on a file in one place to create labels, envelopes and fax cover sheets for any of the contacts on the file. Any changes to contact information will change the information in your file.
To access the Label/Envelope/Fax feature, click on the Docs tab inside a file to open the Docs screen. Then click on the Labe/Envelope/Fax button to open the feature.
The checkbox beside each contact name allow you to select the contact you want to use when creating your Label, Envelope, or Fax Cover.
To see or change any of the contact information, click the plus icon to expand the contact, as shown above.
If you want to add more contacts (who are not included by default), you can add them under Extra Contacts. Simply, enter the name (First name(s) followed by Last name) into the Extra Contacts text field. When you either hit the Enter key (on your keyboard) or click outside the field, the additional fields will appear, followed by a new Extra Contact text field (in case you want to add more than 1 extra contact).
The last part of the popup window is the Municipal Offices/Utilities. You can use the database button beside the field to select any of the searches you have chosen for the file’s municipality.
Label Setup and Printing
To set the quantity of labels you want, complete the Start Label # field.
The number in the Start Label # field correlates to the following:
For example, if you enter 2 into the Start Label # field then the first label will be printed in the upper right corner.
Note: By default the Start Label # will start at 1, which means that the labels will start printing in the upper left corner. You are able to change how the labels are printed by changing the settings. You are also able to open the label settings by clicking Setup. In the Setup popup, enter your label specifications (including paper size). Click Save when you are satisfied with your changes.
Note: That if you change any of the specifications for the Label, click Refresh above the Label Sheet View to update how the labels will be printed. You are also able to change the text of your label from the standard text from this popup. Simply change the radio button under Label Advanced Settings to Customize the label text. A text field will appear with editing options.
Note: It is recommended you click [ADDRESS] to insert where the address for each contact will appear. Without this identifier none of your labels will print the contacts’ address.
Once you are happy with your changes click the Save button. After saving, close the Setup popup to return to the Label/Envelope/Fax popup. If you click the Labels button, you will see your labels open in a new window for you to print.
Envelope Setup and Printing
Setting up and printing envelopes are similar to labels. Click Setup from the Label/Envelope/Fax popup. At the end of the Setup popup, you will see the Envelope Setup (after the Label Sheet Setup).
Note: If you click Refresh above the Envelope View, you will be able to see your changes. After you have completed your changes, click Save. When you click the Envelopes button (on the main Label/Envelope/Fax popup), your envelopes will open in a new window for you to review and print them.
Other Label, Envelope, & Fax Functions
From the Label/Envelope/Fax popup, you are able to open your Fax Covers and Blank Letters for printing. Simply click on the corresponding button.
Note: You are able to edit your Fax Covers and Blank Letters from the Document Control and selecting Fax Cover Sheet Blank or Letter - Blank, respectively.
