Page Size Validation

GovWin Capture Management checks the vertical and horizontal measurements in Print Setup to make sure the label format that you define fits on the page size you specify. If not, GovWin Capture Management displays a message to notify you of the problem.

Left Margin + (Label Width x Number Across) + (Horizontal Gap x number of gaps) + right margin must be less than or equal to Page Width.

Top Margin + (Label Height x Number Down) + (Vertical Gap x number of gaps) + bottom margin must be less than or equal to Page Height.

GovWin Capture Management assumes that the right margin is the same as the left margin and that the bottom margin is the same as the top margin.

Field Description
Type Specify which of the following types of labels you are printing addresses on:
  • Avery 5160 (three labels across on a standard 8.5" x 11" page)
  • Avery 5161 (two labels across on a standard 8.5" x 11" page)
  • Avery L7163 (two labels across on a standard 8.26" x 11.69" A4 page)
  • User-defined (any other label format)

When you select a type of label, GovWin Capture Management sets the other options in the Print Setup section to default measurements.

If you select one of the standard types of labels, print a test page to check the alignment of the information on the labels. If the alignment is not correct, change the default measurements.

If you select User-defined, take the required measurements from a sheet of labels and enter them in the Print Setup section.

If you make any changes to the default settings or if you enter settings for a user-defined label, save the new measurements as a set of saved options or as a favorite, so you do not have to adjust the alignment the next time you print labels.
