LibreOffice is fully capable of doing this, but it’s not what I would call “easy” or straightforward.

The idea behind a label merge, just like a form letter merge, is that you have a bunch of address information in a spreadsheet or database and, rather than having to enter all of that separately into a document to print labels, you’ll just have the software create the labels from the data you already have. So, here is my tutorial on how to merge labels in LibreOffice. Whenever that happens, I know that means I need to create a tutorial on here so I can remind myself how to do it if I ever need to do it again. In the process, I realized that I totally forgot how to do it after the first time. The first time, I actually did a form letter and a label merge the second time I just had to do an address label merge. I’ve been using LibreOffice for over a decade and have only had to do an address label merge twice in that time – both of which have been in the last month.
