+ <title>Example 3: Address Labels Using the <app>Evolution</app> Addressbook</title>
+
+ <p>Our last party was a great success, and now we need to print mailing
+ address labels for the invitations to a new one. To simplify this, we can use
+ the <app>Evolution</app> addressbook, because the address
+ data of all our friends is stored there.</p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>Depending on how your copy of <app>gLabels</app> was packaged, this option could be unavailable.
+ Support for the <app>Evolution</app> addressbook will only be available
+ if the <app>evolution-data-server</app> and its development files
+ were present when <app>gLabels</app> was built. Please keep this in mind if you build <app>gLabels</app>
+ directly from source.</p>
+
+ <p>If the <app>gLabels</app> package from your distribution lacks this support,
+ you may wish to contact the package maintainer or file a bug against the package
+ to request it.</p>
+ </note>
+
+ <p>In <app>glabels</app> we have created a new <app>gLabels</app>
+ document using the Avery 5512 "Address Labels" template. Next we use the
+ <guiseq> <gui>Objects</gui>
+ <gui>Merge Properties</gui></guiseq> menu item to display
+ the <gui>Merge properties</gui> dialog. We use this dialog to
+ select the source type (in our case <gui>Data from default Evolution
+ addressbook</gui>) as shown.</p>

+ <p>Merge properties dialog</p>
+ </media>
+ <!-- ==== End of Figure ==== -->
+
+ <p>Once we have chosen <gui>Data from default Evolution addressbook
+ </gui> as our merge source, we will get a full list of its content. Initially,
+ all entries are checked. Assuming we were planning a really big party, we could
+ leave this selection untouched (but let's keep our budget in mind). We will now select or
+ unselect certain entries by clicking on the appropriate checkboxes, or we could use
+ the <gui>Select all</gui> and <gui>Unselect all
+ </gui> buttons to activate or deactivate all entries in the address book.</p>
+
+ <p>We can also view each entry in more detail by clicking on the appropriate
+ expander (the little triangles) as shown. Once we are satisfied with the
+ selections in this dialog, we will click the <gui>OK</gui> button to
+ accept the changes.</p>
+
+ <p>Now we start adding objects to our <app>glabels</app> document as shown.</p>
+
+ <!-- ==== Figure ==== -->
+ <media type="image" src="figures/merge-ex3-2.png" mime="image/png" style="right">
+ <p>Adicionando objetos</p>
+ </media>
+ <!-- ==== End of Figure ==== -->
+
+ <p>In this example we have a single text object again. This text object contains
+ all of our merge fields organized on multiple lines as a mailing address.</p>
+
+ <p>Now we can print our address labels by selecting the
+ <guiseq> <gui>File</gui>
+ <gui>Print</gui> </guiseq> menu item. This will display
+ the print dialog as shown below.</p>
+
+ <!-- ==== Figure ==== -->
+ <media type="image" src="figures/merge-ex3-3.png" mime="image/png" style="right">
+ <p>Printing address labels</p>
+ </media>
+ <!-- ==== End of Figure ==== -->
+
+ <p>Just to make sure our labels are going to look okay, we select the
+ <gui>Print outlines</gui> option and click
+ <gui>Print Preview</gui>. This will display a print preview dialog
+ as shown below.</p>
+
+ <!-- ==== Figure ==== -->
+ <media type="image" src="figures/merge-ex3-4.png" mime="image/png" style="right">
+ <p>Addess labels preview</p>
+ </media>
+ <!-- ==== End of Figure ==== -->
+
+ <p>Everything looks good, so we can now load up our printer with
+ the appropriate label stock, print our address labels and start mailing
+ our party invitations.</p>
