There is a screen help link found on the
cgi-bin/koha/labels/label-home.pl page. It could use some help,
though.
Basically there are three or four steps: 1. Define/Select a template,
2. Define/Select a layout, 3. Create a batch and add items to it, 4.
Generate a pdf for that batch, and finally, 5. Print the pdf on your
labels.
There are currently four different label styles available: 1. Bib
info/Barcode, 2. Barcode/Bib info, 3. Barcode, 4. Spine. These are
hard coded at present. If someone would like a different style, they
can submit a feature request.

I am working on some further changes and improvements, (including a
more complete patron card tool) but these will not be available until
probably 3.2 or so.

Kind regards,

Chris
