Avery Label format J8551 is still missing from the list.
please, describe the exact steps you do to reproduce the bug.
I simply went to the labels wizard, and the Avery format I required (J8551) was absent from the list, both before and after upgrading Libre Office.
I add labels expert to CC list. maybe he can help.
@Horby: I confirm that Avery J8551 is not (yet) included in the default labels. Thank you for reporting this. I will add this label, and more new labels that I may come across. Meanwhile, you can use J8651, which is included in the default labels and which has the same dimensions. @tommy27: Thanks for alerting me :)
Thanks for the info re the alternative format number! Why do Avery make it so confusing?!?
(In reply to comment #5) > Thanks for the info re the alternative format number! Why do Avery make it > so confusing?!? You're welcome. Should you come across other missing labels, please file a new bug report. I don't keep track of all new labels and feed back is always helpful to further improve LibreOffice :) BTW, you can add your own label definitions if you wish, also under manufacturer Avery and with name J8551.
I did try to add the label definition, but couldn't figure out quite how to do it.

(In reply to comment #8) > I think your name should be here: > https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/FindTheExpert > > nobody knows the label thing in LibO better than you It may be true that I know a bit more of the label thing than some others, but I am far from an expert. It would insult the real experts were someone to add me to that list ;) BTW adding label definition to the code is something of an easy hack.
(In reply to comment #7) > I did try to add the label definition, but couldn't figure out quite how to > do it. In the label wizard, tab Format, there is a button (save...) at the bottom of the dimension input fields. Press that, select existing brand or enter your own and enter your name of choice for the label. You can't overwrite existing default labels, so don't be afraid. The labels you save yourself are stored with your personal settings and remain there with version updates.
Thank you! So easy once you know how.
Winfried Donkers committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=c20117b3919ed15d86c03e194a17d786cd14e914 fdo#71736 add missing Avery labels to label wizard The patch should be included in the daily builds available at http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
Libre Office is missing the Avery 8250 label format as well. Any chance someone could add that to the next release? Thanks!
Winfried: for the test, I tried to find specs of Avery labels 8250 but haven't found it. Where do you retrieve specs to fill extras/source/labels/labels.xml ? R. Steven Rainwater: in order to keep track of the bugs more easily, could you fill a new bug by using this link? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/bug/

Most of the time, I have to download a template and take the dimensions from that document (size and position of the frames). @R. Steven: I just checked with version 3.6 (and master). Avery label 8250 is present under ' Avery letter size'. Should you find other labels that are missing, please file a new bug (and enter me under cc). In general: Avery label is a letter size label sheet, compatible with the following compatible Avery labels: 15160, 15510, 15660, 16460, 18160, 18260, 18660, 28660, 32660, 38260, 45160, 48160, 48260, 48360, 48460, 48860, 48960, 5160, 5260, 55160, 5520, 55260, 55360, 5620, 5630, 5660, 5810, 58160, 58260, 58660, 5960, 6240, 6241, 6970, 75160, 8160, 8250, 8460, 85560, 8620, 8660, 8810, 88560, 8860, 8920. Last time I checked, I only checked A4 label sheets. Closing this bug, to avoid further confusion.
