Django print labels
Not sure if anybody will find this helpful. I had an extremely tough time finding a way to print out mailing labels from my Django app.
Instead I decided to export an spreadsheet using the xlwt library. Then you can use MS Word's Mail Merge functions to get Avery labels for each of your contacts.
I have a database full of families with addresses. I want to print out mailing labels for each family. I have various avery labels to use, is there an easy way to do this task? Is there a library or some tutorials you know of that others have used to accomplish this?
I used a project that was ported to python 2.6 and used pyPDF to make a pdf with labels of specific dimensions, but I think it may be outdated. The labels printed don't line up. Do I just need to adjust these or is there an easier way to save the data and do a mail merge in Word?
If there is not another way, I guess I'll just create a spreadsheet with the fields to import into Word.
