I don't have an easy answer for you either, but I didn't find it very hard to configure the Spine Labels. I use Demco labels. I'd be happy to send you a screen print of my config file if it is a help in getting you going. I found the Spine Label tool very flexible and we were able to customize the label for our own needs quite easily. We are a philatelic library, in other words we hold books about stamp collecting. We mostly follow the Library of Congress in their rules. On the Spine Label we have four lines of data: 1. The Country Code 2. The Topical Cutter 3. The Author Cutter 4. The Barcode Number. As each book is setup in the Catalog we apply a label with the Barcode Number on the inside cover. Then when we print a sheet of Spine Labels we can compare the barcode on the inside cover with the barcode on the Spine Label to make sure that we get it correct. Regards, Tim Auld Minnesota
