Custom Stickers With Ms-Word or PowerPoint

Design your custom stickers in Ms-Word or PowerPoint; where you can fill colors and write texts wherever requires. After making the design with the available clip arts and shapes merge or group them into one picture or object.

If you designed your custom stickers in Photoshop then copy and paste in Ms-Word. Now click on View menu and check the Ruler button to view the ruler bar.

Measure your drawn art with the ruler and re-size it accordingly as you need. Note it; the items should be grouped while resizing the object. You can group the objects with ‘Ctrl + A’ button or selecting all. Re-size the grouped object with the help of mouse while pressing the Shift key.

Now after measuring and resizing your object to the required size, make some duplicate copies of that object and put in horizontal and vertical lines to fill the complete paper.

 

How To Print Custom Sticklers

Now the custom stickers are ready to print. If you want to print custom Stickers of around ten sheets (one sheet = one A4 size paper); better to take printouts in Inkjet printers with the help of ten vinyl sticker papers. If you want to print more than twenty or above, better to give order online or go to some printing press for a low-cost.

Printing fifteen or more vinyl papers in inkjet printers will cost more. Within that range you can get good quality prints if your order online. For more than hundred designed customer sticker pages it is better to go for screen-print or offset print to get superior quality custom stickers at a less price.
