Hi Ian, thank you for replying to my message. I have not worked with pages very much. Inserting the text sounds easy enough, I have not worked with tables in pages. I’m assuming it’s similar to windows. Any suggestions on how to navigate the tables easily. What are the commands. Do I interact with each cell so that I can edit? If I buy the brand name Avery labels is there a section in pages like there is in word using the product number to find the template. If not I’m assuming I download the template from the Avery website and open it in Pages. When you say I save the new template, do I just use the basic saving method or is there something specific that I’m looking for? I hope I haven’t confused you too much with my questions. Thank you in advance for any suggestions and your response. Regards, zoe. God the Father chose Her, God the Son dwellt in Her, God the Spirit overshadowed Her. Most Holy Theotokos Mother of God, intercede on our behalf.
