Hi,

My user would like to duplicate many times the same label (and then modify it after exportation in rtf format). Indeed, each individual slide has a number but they don’t want to create many times the according preparations. So they just create a single preparation with nb count equals 24 (as example). That would be very paintful (especially on specify 6) to create 24x the same preparation with only the slide number which would be different.

Would you have an idea how to do that using iReport or other?

Thanks,  
Alexis

Here’s a snippet of our [iReport documentation](https://speciforum.org/t/getting-started-with-reports/99):

You can configure the “Repeats” value when saving the label to repeat by a numeric Specify field Does this solution work for you?
