How to Make Name Tags in Microsoft Word

1. Open a new document in Microsoft Word. Leave the document open to enable the menu options.
2. Click "Labels" from the Create group on the Mailings tab.
3. Select "Options," and then "Label Options." Select your printer, the vendor for the name tags you are using and the corresponding product number for the labels. If you can't find the product, measure your labels and choose the closest option from the list. Leave the Address field blank. Select "OK" to close the dialog box.
4. Click "Full page of the same label" from the Print choices.
5. Click "New Document" to create a Word document in which you can enter the sheet of name tags, which appears as a table in Word. To view the lines on the table, select "View Gridlines" from the Layout tab, Table Tools, in the Table Group.
6. Enter the names for each name tag, using the font and format options from Word. Choose the "Save" icon to save your work.
7. Select the "Printer" icon to print the labels. When printing for the first time, print only one page to test that the format and labels are acceptable.
