Has anyone labeled Dansco pages with Avery labels, maybe return address labels? I haven't had much luck removing printing from pages so I was thinking about using the Avery labels with a background to make the Dansco pages.

Also, had anyone created labels to cover the gold script on the cover or binding and what did you use. I find it difficult to read sometimes.

Thanks

As far as removing the print...I know of several members who have had success. Dearborn is one that comes to mind, maybe he'll chime in the next few days...hang in there.

I've had good success at labeling blank Dansco pages and blank holes. It's time consuming and tedious but not difficult. I used Avery 15667 labels. Make sure you download the official Microsoft Word template from Avery's website.

Matching the font, size, and spacing is the hardest part, because it varies by album more than I realized. For each album, I used a good closeup photo of Dansco's printed font and uploaded it to a font finder website to pick the closest match to a font I already have on Microsoft Word. Font size for labeling holes is usually 10 point. Depending on how low your ink/toner is, you may need to bold the text. If you can't fit the text on one line, like "Dr. Mary Edwards Walker," then condense the character spacing until it fits.

For the 7147 album, I used Times New Roman, 10 pt. For the 8146 and 8147 albums, I used Proza Libre, 10 pt. For the 7062 album, I used Futura Md BT, 10 pt.

Before you print, go to Printer Properties and under Printing Shortcuts select Labels and click OK. Before you apply a label, cut it down as close to the text as possible. That makes for a better look. I'll upload photos of my labeled pages later.
