i just finished adding label printing to Parts Catalog.  Incase you don't
know Parts Catalog is a program used to make inventories.  it imports and
exports lots of different formats and is really good for making inventories
for peeron.

Label printing uses LDraw .dat files to render the part images so you must
have LDraw installed and you must set the LDraw directory in Parts
Catalog.  Press the 'more' button on the bottom right of the main screen to
set the directory.  Make an inventory with the parts you want labels for
(don't forget to choose the color you want) then press the label button.

Now choose the layout color and fonts for the label. The scale and x,y,z
rotation of the LDraw image can be changed too. Then pick the template you
want the label printed on. Check the preview to see if everything looks
good then print.

Excellent, I can make labels for those parts that Jeff Boen didn't make.

How does Parts Catalog detect the LDraw directory?  Maybe I missed something in
the program but I had to manually edit the PartsCat.ini file in order for Parts
Catalog to render the LDraw parts.

I also have one request.  Have a "any color" option for labels

One more thing, I'm guessing you are using Delphi/BCB to develop Parts Catalog?
Can you enable the "custom color" option for the color combo boxes on the label
making dialog?
