It might be nice on this page: koha/labels/label-create-template.pl?op=blank to have an image of what each number is referring to on a label sheet - I've seen this in other systems and it has helped me out a lot when creating label templates.

This would an image of a sheet of labels (or a part of a sheet of labels) with things like "label height" labeled on the image so people know what part they're measuring.

Label Template Measurements

Here is a possible image.

We probably should make some "lingo" changes on the template page as follows:

"Gap between columns" becomes "Horizontal Gap"
"Gap between rows" becomes "Vertical Gap"

"Label Pitch" is important to have on the image as some label specifications give this measure and not the horizontal/vertical gap measure.

Thanks Chis, that's along the lines of the images I've been working on today. My plan was actually to create a series of them, assuming they could be included in the online help (as opposed to inline on the page).

I think "Gap between columns" is less confusing (and less ambiguous) than "Horizontal Gap," but maybe that's just me.

Image describing label pitch

Someone please correct me if I've gotten any of these wrong or any of them seem misleading. "Label pitch" was new to me. Koha's label setup form doesn't include any reference to pitch, so if we use the label pitch image we should be sure to contextualize it properly in the online help.

These look great, Owen!

Label pitch is a measure given in some label specs rather than horizontal and vertical gap (gap between row/column). It can be used to calculate accurately the gap horz/vert gap.

This could be explained in the help page.

What will it take to get these images into 3.2?  I'll put them in the manual, but it might help to have them on the page where you create the label or card.

Is there a way to translate them or design without embedding English in the image itself?  I agree that having the images be available directly in the interface would nice, but we should avoid adding untranslatable content.
