When using avery I find that I have to make sure my program has the template for avery product in order for my printer(canon) to print right. Check the back of the avery package to see if you have to set your margins or anything on your printer. You can also go straight to the Avery site and there may be a template there to download for that product for printing. Just some suggestions I hope one of them help you out.

I have an older program Print Artist that prints out avery perfectly. I also have an avery program that I got when making yard signs. It usually has a lot to do with margins set on the printer. I know it is a pain when things don't line up I have been trying to print oval labels for my product and still haven't got it right lol

Hope this helps

Smiles n hugs

Hi! Look under printer properties and put in the Avery number or whatever number the box says to use then they should line up properly. Also look to see if you are using portrait or landscape. Hope this helps.

What's that saying ,,"If it wasn't for bad luck ,,I would have no luck at all"!!! What a day trying to make those invites! I found the template,,,did it line up right?? NO!!! This is soooooooo annoying!
So now I will try another way,,if I don't run out of ink! I should just stick to what I am good at and leave this to the experts!

I don't know what program you are using to make the invitations but have you tried just making the paper size a custome size? When I am working in MS word making pages for books I sometimes do that and they come out right. I hope you get it soon, I know how absolutely frustrating it can be. Makes you want to pitch the computer, printer and whole mess right out the window, been there, done that!!!! Good luck. (you can do this in the page setup tab in word - paper size, custom)
