Force Address Book to include country on labels Apps
While preparing address labels for an international mailing, I was surprised to find the country was sometimes omitted -- even though I had Print Country and Except my Country selected.

After testing, I discovered that the cause of this was having the wrong address format selected. Since I live in Germany and its format is compatible with several other European countries, I didn't change the format unless it was necessary. Changing the address format on all of the address entries solved the problem.

Sorry, but I don't see any means of changing an address format for separate users. I only see the setting for the entire Address Book. Can you share the secret for setting a user to a different address format? Thanks.

Ok. I clicked on every conceivable area and finally found the popup for it. If you click on the address category popup selector while editing an address, you see at the bottom of the popup "change format..." or something like that. Good to go.

I just use this freeware app for my chrismas cards: pearLabelizer After some testing and trying out commercial apps I found this one to be the best.
