Quickly Produce Printed Addresses on Labels and Envelopes

Despite the rise of email, the web, and other online resources, there are still plenty of folks who depend on the postal service for communications. Think about it - when was the last time you received a wedding invitation via email? Even marketers are cluing in to the fact that, as more businesses go exclusively online, there's a good chance that a well-crafted piece of mail will get noticed. But if your task involves mailing out correspondence and marketing communications to hundreds of recipients, you're probably shuddering at the thought of addressing all of those envelopes! That's why you need to look into today's discount software promotion, Handy Label Maker.

Handy Label Maker lets you print mailing addresses directly onto labels and envelopes, saving you valuable time and effort. With Handy Label Maker, you don't even need to have a separate application open to look up addresses, since the program also serves as your electronic Rolodex, giving you the ability to manage and quickly look up contact information. And if you find yourself using a variety of non-standard envelope sizes, don't worry! Handy Label Maker is fully capable of printing on envelopes of different size, easily.

When it comes to contact management, Handy Label Maker is second to none. You can get up and running quickly, thanks to the ability to import contacts from your email provider or other sources. Then, create categories within your contacts so that you can create multiple labels and envelopes quickly - to everyone on a customer list, to new prospects, family, friends, whatever! And as your network grows, and Handy Label Maker becomes your primary go-to contact manager, you'll be able to update other email clients easily by exporting your contacts.

John Westbury Is this 'format-able' - or perhaps 'customisable' would be a better question? Are we all doomed to accept the American form of Addresses?! Other than the US I'm not aware of others that use 'States' - although I accept that probably no-one else uses 'Counties' either!
Jan 19 at 3:01am
Christ Milesis The fields in "Add contact" are not customizable, but will accept any text. Also, on the main form, for printing an 'on-the-fly' one time label, Lines 1 through 5 accept any text irrespective of country, etc.

Lifetime Upgrades Are there any plans to enhance the program such as:
Allowing more templates to be used.
Allow the system to use different fonts.
Allow for things such as Bold, italic, underline, etc.

Christ Milesis Thank you for your questions regarding lifetime upgrades for Handy Label Maker (HLM). The reason HLM utilizes a straightforward, plain text is so the automated machines at the Postal Service can read the address. The following is an excerpt from the USPS guidelines for addressing mail: "Fancy type fonts such as those used on wedding invitations do not read well on mail processing equipment. Fancy fonts look great on your envelopes, but also may slow down your mail". Having said that, we do provide a 'Bold' option in the case of Envelope addressing. After selecting envelope size, simply click the 'Bold' checkbox to print your address in Bold.

Lifetime Upgrades Thank you for that.

As to my other question, do you expect to upgrade the software to fit more compatible label templates instead of only Avery 5160 and 8160 or am I missing something here?

Will your software also be able to use barcodes in the future as well?
Jan 19 at 2:07pm
Christ Milesis So glad you asked about barcodes, because we are currently working on it and plan to incorporate barcode functionality in a future release.

Concerning label sizes, Handy Label Maker supports Avery 5160 and 8160 (these are both 1" x 2 5/8") for regular label printing, as well as Avery 5167 (1/2" x 1 3/4") for return address label printing. We have no plans to offer more label sizes. If you have a particular label size you would like included, we would consider it for evaluation.
Track Your Trades Vendor - Jan 19 at 2:45pm
Lifetime Upgrades Again, thank you. do not have a particular one in mind, it is that sometimes in life, things happen and we need a variety of things.

For example, around Christmas time, many people ship large size packages and would need a larger size label as well as a larger size font. That is why I was asking about the variety of labels and fonts size.

Also, since this program is not needed by most on a regular basis, are there plans for a portable version?
Jan 19 at 3:26pm
Christ Milesis Regarding a portable version, we are exploring ways to develop a version for tablets, and possibly smartphones, across iOS, Android, and Windows Phone platforms.

Also, it should be noted that portability is satisfied by laptops and netbooks, and since Handy Label Maker can be installed on those devices, it is already portable to some extent. Nonetheless, as mentioned, we are cognizant of the mobile revolution and are exploring it.

Ian S Tried the trial and can't import an csv address file - get error number 9 - subscript out of range.
Jan 20 at 12:22am
Christ Milesis Ian, I suspect the csv file is somehow not in the correct format. You might want to look at the file by opening it in a text editor like NotePad, to see if you can detect the problem. Alternatively, if you send me the file, I will gladly examine it and most likely will be able to fix it for you.
