Create a Label Template

Label Templates save time by enabling you to create pre-designed label layouts that can be selected during the label creation process.  When a predesigned label template is selected during the label creation process, the label dimension fields will auto-populate with the label template dimensions.  If an image overlay was added to the selected label template, the image overlay will automatically be applied to the label.
