Multiple Columns Of Different Sizes

Good morning all

 

In the business I work for, we are testing printing on heavier duty labels. The labels stock we have been given to try have two columns, but of different widths.The first column is 60mm by 39mm, and the second column is 21mm by 39mm.

 

I don't know yet if the people requesting these labels will be wanting us to use both columns, but I'd like to know if it is possible to set this up as a page in BarTender before they ask me. When I go to setup the page in BarTender with two columns, it assumes they are the same size.

  It's best if you treat these two labels as a label set where the page set-up in BarTender defines a single label for the row, and then in the design layout you design the two labels together as on on screen.  Perhaps specify non-printing lines/boxes to guide the user on where each label is located to aid the design process.

  Thanks for your reply Ian. I figured this would probably be the case. I'll be the one designing the labels anyway, so it's not a big ask for me to take that approach.
