I want to add text to a 63.5mm round label. Is it possible to write text
around the label in word or powerpoint?

Hi Jadmx7,

For Avery labels that could be product 5294 for U.S. letter size (sorry I'm not sure what the A4 product #is).

You didn't mention the version of Office you're using.

One approach is to use the free Avery Label software to write curved text.
It's available as downloadable standalone, Avery Wizard add-in to Office, or just use it ononline and put the labels in the printer
:)

or UK http://avery.com/uk1/index.jsp

If you're using just Word you can create a sheet of labels (a Word table) and then Insert and shape WordArt for curved text.

Word 2007: Mailings=>Labels=>Options
select label type=>OK
then click 'New Document' to create a sheet of labels.

Word 2003: Tools=>Letters and Mailings=>Envelopes and Labels=>Labels
select label type=>OK
then click 'New Document' to create a sheet of labels.

Insert your WordArt in a label cell (set text wrapping of the WordArt to 'inline with text)' and shape and style to suit. Copy the
content of your one table cell to the other cells on the other labels, save and print.
