"coupled" labels (printing 2 different labels with 1 print job).

    So i've gotten a bit further with my problem: You can use the batch maker to do this (select the two labels you want to print in a batch, select the two printers the labels need to go to and voila!).

    Now a second problem arises: I have a record picker in both labels where the same record has to be picked twice. Of course I only want to do this once. 

    Is it possible to share a single form/record picker with two templates?

    Until batch maker gets some more love, I have spun my own UI to do this. Where I collect the substring, prompts and push all of them to each label, using the print scheduler sdk, or direct to the print scheduler service if your brave enough

    This generates a warning but will still work, so unless you are of the mind of warning = error it's pretty simple to do. If you don't like the warnings you should be able to use the print scheduler to divulge the valid substrings, keys, connections you can override, and use that to send only what you need.

    You could always use Integration Builder to automatically print the other label if you have an Automation edition.

    There are a couple of ways to do this

    1.  "pull" all the fields from the database on to 1st label including those used by the second label but not the first, but drag these into the unprintable area and configure the Log Setup from the Administer menu using the Text logging option. Configure the output file to just output the data, or if preferred include the Per Template Field Name too. Setup Integration Builder to look for this log file when it is produced and then open up the 2nd label format and print this as required.
    2. Similar to above but if all the information comes from the database you could just output the Database Query Value into the Log file and configure Integration Builder similar to the above but linkt that the data in the trigger file to the database filter field in the 2nd label
