[thelist] Avery printing labels

Hi,

 

I have what I thought should be a simple request, but I'm not finding a
solution.  Our client has a database of companies, and he wants his
customers to log in and be able to generate a PDF that is pre-formatted
to Avery label size.  The idea is that the user would enter the Avery
number, select the data filters, and then we will generate a PDF he can
print onto the labels.

 

I thought for sure there would be an existing class for a .NET
application out there, even if we needed to pay for it.  But I can't
find one.  Avery suggested using their online wizard (gag) or generate a
CSV file which then gets imported into Microsoft Word.  Neither of these
are solutions I want to present to our client - end users will balk at
the number of steps. 

 

Has anyone ever done this?  

 

Thanks,

 

Casey
