[. . . ] By default, all new labels start out with a SmartDesign for the product type and label stock you chose in the New Label Wizard. SmartDesigns are templates that act like a design assistant. They provide a variety of layout choices, sample text, and font and point size suggestions. [. . . ] Place one hand flat upon the backing sheet while lifting a corner of the label. Keep the label as tight (flat) as possible, and slowly peel straight up, while keeping tension on the label sheet with your other hand.
