I haven't done labels, but I wrote a package to print business cards on pre-perforated business-card stock.
Basically, I use .sp |(x)i to get to the proper location vertically on the page, then set the page offset and line length to establish proper horizontal position. I then print the text. It's fairly straight-forward to write a macro and do a little math, or even use a shell script to create the groff file while reading a mailing-list database text file (with awk, sed, etc.). The reason I like if for business cards is that I can have an assortment of cards for different uses without having to pay a commercial printer to make 1000 cards of one design. I only get 10 per sheet, so I can print 10 or 50 or anything else I want. I can even mix styles on a single sheet. Clarke John Poltorak wrote:
Is there any way to use groff for creating addresses using standard Avery labels?
