Default Fitting Photos into Avery Labels Using Fitted Text Boxes

Good Morning,

I work for an artist, and she needs to have contact sheets of her photos (and titles/other information) printed onto labels. I have got the Avery template, and my first go was to use developer frames, which seemed great for landscape photos, but portrait photos would extend down into the next label. Not satisfactory. I then tried text boxes, which seem to work better, but it is still necessary to rejig the photos a bit when they're in.

What I would like to find is a way to set up a frame as a template, for each of the 14 labels on the page. Each one would automatically resize the picture that was dragged into it, so that it would not extend into the next label. Is it possible to do this? I've tried setting the parameters, mucking around with locking anchors and all that, but I'm afraid I don't know an awful lot when it comes to specific tasks like this.

Any help would be much appreciated,


Kind Regards,
Lou.

If you insert a picture in line into a label table cell the image will shrink to the width of the cell. A text box is superfluous.

You may find http://www.gmayor.com/photo_gallery_template.html useful.
