Package: glabels
Version: 2.1.3-1
Severity: normal

Labels: DECADry OCC-3727 10 x (85 x 54) mm Business Cards.
Paper size: A4

Template input:
Label width: 85.0mm
Label height: 54.0mm
0.00mm round, horiz/vertical waste and 0.00 margin.
1 layout.
Number across: 2
Number down: 5
Distance from left edge: 15.0mm
Distance from top edge: 13.5mm
Horizontal pitch: 95.0mm
Vertical pitch: 54.0mm

Template file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Glabels-templates xmlns="http://snaught.com/glabels/2.0/">
  <Template name="Decadry OCC-3727" size="A4" description="Business
Cards">
    <Label-rectangle id="0" width="240.945pt" height="153.071pt"
round="0pt" x_waste="0pt" y_waste="0pt">
      <Markup-margin size="0pt"/>
      <Layout nx="2" ny="5" x0="42.5197pt" y0="38.2677pt" dx="269.291pt"
dy="153.071pt"/>
    </Label-rectangle>
  </Template>
</Glabels-templates>

Actual printout:
Label width: 80.0mm
Label height: 50.0mm
Distance from left edge: 23.0mm
Distance from top edge:  12.0mm
Distance between columns: 10.0mm (correct)
Distance between rows: 0.0mm (correct)
Distance from right edge: 17.5mm
Distance from bottom edge: 30.0mm

Expected figures:
Label width: 85.0mm
Label height: 54.0mm
Distance from left edge: 15.0mm
Distance from top edge: 13.5mm
Distance from right edge: 15.0mm
Distance from bottom edge: 13.5mm

I've tried printing a large text file (the GPL licence) in AbiWord
without any margins, headers or footers and the printable area with my
Epson Stylus Color (sic) 660 is 217mm x 272mm. The bottom 20mm is not
printable and the printable area begins 4mm from the left edge of A4.

Other 10 x (85 x 54) templates give the same result - I started off
using DECADry DAW-327 and tried DECADry SCW-2090 too.
