The help text for printing labels and business cards: https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Creating_and_Printing_Labels_and_Business_Cards is incomprehensible at its end: the last item (6) should be positioned before item 5. Then the sequence is logical: to create a new document... you have to click on "New document"; then, when you have clicked, you will see the synchronize button; and that is exactly what happens. The new item 6, by the way, should be rephrased: instead of "as soon as you click..." it should read "as soon as you have clicked..." or even "as soon as the new document is created", because the small dialog only appears with the document (and vanishes when it is closed). The wrong sequence has been honestly translated into all languages I can judge of.
Hello Gerhard, *, thank you for reporting this bug :) I can confirm it with OS: Debian Testing AMD64 LO: back to OOo 3.2.0 (OOO320m12 (Build:9483) (my oldest parallel installed OOo/LO version, following the instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux), so setting "Status" to "NEW" and "Version" to "Inherited From OOo".

Hello Gerhard, *, as I got a response from Olivier (see //go.mail-archive.com/5EhSNFLJ0HJpqeBUo2C9j8P0CFI=>) to add #80430 as a blocker and to add my description of my mail to the l10n list, here it is: <quote> due to a debate on our discuss@de.l.o list, I found the following: <quote> Designing Labels and Business Cards You can design both labels and business cards through the Labels dialog. 1. Choose File - New - Labels to open the Labels dialog. 2. On the Labels tab, under Format, define the label format. LibreOffice Writer contains many formats of commercially available sheets for labels, badges, and business cards. You can also add other, user-defined formats. 3. On the Labels tab, under Inscription, you can choose what you want written on the labels. This often involves database fields, so that the labels can be printed with varying content, when sending "Form Letters" for example. It is also possible to have the same text printed on every label. 4. Use the Database and Table list boxes to select the database and table from which the data fields are obtained. Click on the arrow button to transfer the selected data field into the inscription area. Press Enter to insert a line break. You can also enter spaces and any other fixed text. On the Format tab you can define your own label formats, not covered by the predefined formats. To do this, select "User" from the Type list box. On the Options tab, you can specify whether all labels or only certain ones are to be created. 4. On the Options tab page, make sure that the Synchronize contents box is selected. If this is selected, a label only has to be entered (on the top left label) and edited once. 5. As soon as you click on New Document, you will see a small window with the Synchronize Labels button. Enter the first label. When you click on the Synchronize Labels button, the current individual label is copied to all the other labels on the sheet. 6. Click on New Document to create a new document with the settings you have entered. </quote> on https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Creating_and_Printing_Labels_and_Business_Cards While trying to follow the steps, I (also confirmed by Gerhard in the discussion mentioned above), it seems the last two steps are in a wrong order. So, should this not be changed to <quote> (steps 1 to 4 as above) 5. Click on New Document to create a new document with the settings you have entered. 6. As soon as you click on New Document, you will see a small window with the Synchronize Labels button. Enter the first label. When you click on the Synchronize Labels button, the current individual label is copied to all the other labels on the sheet. </quote> ? I have tried to find these in Pootle (e.g. https://translations.documentfoundation.org/de/translate/#search=As%20soon%20as%20you%20click%20on%20New%20Document&sfields=source,target and found https://translations.documentfoundation.org/de/libo50_help/translate/shared/guide.po#unit=94047295 where it appears without enumeration. <quote> HTH Thomas.
