Welcome to the Labeljoy user guide. Labeljoy designs and prints labels, badges, envelopes and barcodes - one at a time, or hundreds from a spreadsheet or a database. This guide covers everything it does, and it always describes the latest version.

Finding your way around. The menu on the left follows the way you work: start with Getting started and Your first label, then each chapter takes one part of Labeljoy in turn. Type a word or two in Search the guide, at the top of the menu, to find every page that mentions them. At the bottom of each page, See also suggests the pages closest to it.

Two kinds of page. Chapters, like this one, explain how to do things and are made to be read through. Reference pages describe one panel or one element, every setting in it - the chapters link to them rather than repeat them.

Opening the guide from Labeljoy. Click Online help in the Help panel, or under Tutorials and help on the home screen. The ? in the title bar of a panel or a dialog opens its own page. And for a quick answer while you work, ask Joy, the AI assistant - see Getting help.
