I am trying to get some labels out…there should be about 50 labels but I can only get it to create one sheet of 30. There is data for 50. I merge it and the ones over 30 just don’t show up. What am I doing wrong?

Oh, never mind. This time it worked. I still don’t know why sometimes I only get one sheet.

Remember to merge to a new document. Otherwise you just see the first 30 labels on the first page.
