Using Avery Templates in Microsoft Publisher

[PCorona]

So MS Publisher is gonna disappear next year so was playing around with using Affinity Publisher for labels....I can download Avery label templates, but not sure how I can use those in Affinity Publisher to say make a sheet of the same label......any advice?

Hi @PCorona and welcome to the forums.

The online Avery templates aren't suitable for use in Affinity. I recommend making your own. There is a bit more information in this thread.

I used to have to adapt Avery (and other) labels for APub quite often and I found the easiest way was to make my own templates by opening the pdf version in APub, then use it as a guide to place guide lines, or draw shapes, (depending on the type of labels,) then delete the pdf layer and save the document as a APub template for future use.
