How do I print "Or Current Resident" below the name on my envelopes or labels?
The key to this procedure is exporting in presort order then printing that file from DAZzle instead of Envelope Manager.
- In your DAZzle layout, set the barcode to go below the address.
- Create a rubber stamp and set the Stamp Message to Or Current Resident or whatever you want to say. Paste the rubber stamp in your layout right above the address.
- Create another rubber stamp. Leave the Stamp Message blank. Click on Link to Address List Field and choose Rubber Stamp 1. Paste this rubber stamp just above the Or Current Resident one.
- Save the layout and exit DAZzle.
- In Envelope Manager, presort your mail as usual but don't print the mailpieces. Instead, export to a new database in presort order. The new database will be in an order like tray 1 piece 1, tray 1 piece 2, etc. Remember the new database's location and name.
- Exit Envelope Manager.
- Run DAZzle.
- From the File menu, choose Print List from File. Change the file type to dBase III/IV, and choose the new database you just created.
- When you get to the section where you map the fields, map Field 2: Address 1 to Rubber Stamp 1. That puts the person’s name above Or Current Resident.
- Map Field 3: Address 2 to Address Line 2, then map Field 4: Address 3 to Address Line 3, and so on for your 4 or 5 line address. The sample address you see will not display the first line of the address. Click OK.
- Print a small range as a test. If it works, go back to steps 8 through 10 and print the rest of the file (your settings should still be saved from a few minutes ago). Because this database was in presort order, it will print in the order the pieces go in the trays.
Note: If you are doing a carrier route mailing, the first 200 or more of your addresses will have endorsement lines that must be printed above the address. For those first addresses, your layout will need an extra rubber stamp, linked to address field Rubber Stamp 2, pasted above Rubber Stamp 1. In step 9, map Field 2: Address 1 to Rubber Stamp 2, then map Field 3: Address 2 to Rubber Stamp 1. In step 10, map Field 4: Address 3 to Address Line 3, then Field 5: Address 4 to Address Line 4, and so on. When you reach the addresses that don’t have endorsement lines, change to the layout and mappings described as the regular procedure above. The results should look like this:
