glabels is a gnome application for printing business cards and labels, see
<TT><A NAME="tex2html11"
  HREF="http://snaught.com/glabels">http://snaught.com/glabels</A></TT>. It is designed to work with various laser/ink-jet
peel-off label and business card sheets that you'll find at most office supply
stores. The following works with a glabels version higher than 0.4.

You can use the 'Export' dialog for exporting the log to a type called
'TSV'. This will save your log fields in a TAB separated file. The fields you
want to export can be set in the "Export" page of the
``Settings <SPAN CLASS="MATH"><IMG
 WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="15" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img1.png"
 ALT="$\rightarrow$"></SPAN> Dialogs and Windows``
dialog.

The exported file can be imported into glabels using the template
called qsllabels.glabels in /usr/[local/]share/doc/xlog/glabels.
In case you need to print multiple QSO's per label, enter a number into the
"Group by callsign" field.

You should customize the label sheet by using "Edit <SPAN CLASS="MATH"><IMG
 WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="15" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img1.png"
 ALT="$\rightarrow$"></SPAN> Select All" from the
menu, click on 'New', select the apropriate sheet from the pulldown menu,
use "Edit <SPAN CLASS="MATH"><IMG
 WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="15" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img1.png"
 ALT="$\rightarrow$"></SPAN> Paste" to copy the fields into the new sheet and move them around
with your mouse until the fit on the label. Save this file to use as a
template for your QSL labels.
