printing multiples of a single label

Classic Servoy

Hi all.

I need to be able to print multiple copies of a single label (currently a list view form with an html label and tags). Is there a way to get Servoy to print this single label any number of times? Currently we print one record per label sheet over and over which is a big waste of label sheets…

Thanks for any ideas

filemaker-esque workaround. if it’s a 10-label sheet, import the one record into a temp table & duplicate 9 times?

Try this link:

http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?f … 45&p=29755

It shows property settings for a mailing label form. It is old, but the same technique probably still works. I just reset the links to the screenshots. So they should be working again.

You can also let users modify X and Y coordinate positioning on the fly:

The solutionModel could probably help too with a method creating many labels from the same dataProviderID at runtime in a loop and placing them on a form before it is displayed. Some scripting to write but it should be doable.

Just an idea…

Hi Bevil

The ‘doh’ reply is:

Have you considered using a Dymo style single label printer where the labels are on a reel and so waste is down to a minimum ?
