In the past, printing documents like labels and envelopes has been a hit or miss chore most people dread. The revolutionary design and features of SOHO Print Essentials makes printing as easy as one, two, three: choose your design, choose your contacts, hit print—that's it.

The amount of space required for contact information is difficult to predict—especially if you're printing labels for hundreds of different contacts. The shrink-to-fit option tells the software to automatically shrink the size of the text to fit its enclosing box if necessary.

Use the serial number feature to create raffle and admission tickets. Use the automatic numbering feature to create numbered groups of shipping cartons.

Easily add POSTNET barcodes to envelopes and address labels to expedite shipping and ensure proper delivery.

Choose from over 15 different barcodes for inventory and equipment labels including UPC A, UPC E, Code 39, Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, EAN-8, EAN-13, and others.

Envelope printing has traditionally been a tricky endeavor. SOHO Print Essentials will automatically coordinate envelope printing with your printer. In the event, there is an envelope feeding problem, an intuitive wizard will help you remedy the situation with a few clicks.

Perfect Balance guarantees that text is perfectly balanced on a label or envelope regardless of how much or little text the label contains. No more labels with all the addresses jammed in the upper left corner so long addresses will still fit.

The built-in contact viewer makes mail merge a snap. Simply select the contacts or contact group that you wish to print labels or envelopes for and you're done.

Pictures and albums from iPhoto are directly accessible from the built-in iPhoto Drawer. Simply drag a photo from the drawer to your label, envelope, or letterhead.

Print labels, envelopes, and letterhead using any ink jet or laser printer. Plus, you can use the popular DYMO LabelWriter to print on any of its 40+ labels.

Fluid Preview creates a natural working environment so you can make changes to individual labels, envelopes, invoice lines, or pages on-the-fly and see the outcome in real-time. There are four dynamic aspects to Fluid Preview:
