Mail merge is great for long form letters and adding greetings, addresses, etc.

But if you need to print labels from Numbers you might want to consider something a bit more powerful. Enter my solo developer niche.

I wrote an electron app called Label LIVE that can import excel/numbers files and format each row’s data on a label, hide and show objects based on rules, generate barcodes, swap images, and lots of other features.

Check it out at https://label.live/




Nice - I'll have to check it out. I've yet to find anything that could replace the usefulness and utility of Silicon Press: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/silicon-press

but your app looks like it might be the closest to a spiritual successor so far!


Oh those silicon press screenshots make my heart race. Nice find!


It's one of the original Mac apps from my earliest Mac days that I have always been a bit angry I couldn't find a replacement for. Well, until today anyway!

One thing I used it for was flashcards for language and other studies. Was drop dead simple with that software to make 'em. I even found tractor feed 3x5 cards for use with my Imagewriter II :)


Flash cards are an interesting idea. You could definitely make them with the Sheet PDF feature. Cool idea.
