Choose the shape of the labels
After opening Word to start creating the label, let's go to the “Insert” tab, where the button appears "Form". Clicking on it will bring up options to choose from, among which we can find lines, basic shapes, block arrows, equation shapes, flowcharts, ribbons and stars, among others.

Once we have chosen the shape, we click on the Word sheet and drag the pointer to choose the size. If we want to choose a specific size, Word offers us the possibility to write the measurements in the "Format" tab that appears when you are on the rectangle. On the right side, the size is displayed and two boxes are shown to indicate the width and height of the rectangle.
If you have chosen a shape with one or more rounded or cut edges, clicking on the shape will display one or more elements depending on the number of different edges. This item can be operated with the pointer to customize the size of the corner cut.
