Change Background Color In Avery Design Tool

Once you've selected the blank or pre-designed template you want to use for your Avery product, the template will appear on the Customize screen.

To edit existing text in the template, click directly on the text itself. The Text Tools will open on the left of the screen. Then click and drag your cursor to highlight the text (or click on the edge of the text box) to change the font style, size and color using the Text Tools. You can also change the text alignment, add a new text box or add circular text.

Note: Any changes you make will appear on all items unless you switch to the Edit One tab in the Navigator on the right side of your screen. A good idea is to make your formatting changes first using Edit All, then switch to Edit One to personalize text and images on individual items. Once you make changes to individual items, they won't be affected by future Edit All changes.
