Label Nation: prints address labels ----------------------------------- LabelNation is a program for making labels. By "label", I mean address labels, business cards, or anything else involving regularly-arranged rectangles on a printer-ready sheet. You can give it plain text lines and it will arrange them on the labels in a reasonable way -- or if you want to get really fancy, you can give it PostScript, and it will place and clip appropriately for whatever label size you specified. This started out as a single PostScript file that printed my name and address on a sheet of 30 peel-and-stick labels. Now it's generalized, with pre-defined configurations for various standard label sizes, and the ability to define your own standards. It even accepts input files with multiple addresses (so you can run a snail-mailing list, whoo-whee!). If you read this far, you probably want to know how to use it. You can find out more by running this command (at a Unix-like command prompt, assuming you have Python 3 installed): prompt$ labelnation --help | more How To Get The Latest Code Via Subversion: ------------------------------------------ See http://www.red-bean.com/labelnation/svn.html. How To Report A Bug: -------------------- Please send bug reports to . I'm especially interested in reports about alignment or sizes being off, as I don't have wide enough experience with other printers to know that the built-in label standards work everywhere. I know they work on _my_ printer, but my printer is an old Okidata emulating an old HP, and being driven by ghostscript. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if some scaling factors get stretched somewhere in that chain... So let me know how this works for you. And of course, contributions of new label parameters are always welcome. Thanks, -Karl Fogel
