Losing my margin!?

I am designing a report to output address labels (Avery 5160) and the
spacing of the data in the columns and the rows descrease as the print moves
down the page. By the final row of labels, the name line is in the row
preceeding row. I am using a list object and the margin settings are per
Avery's spec sheet.
Anyone else experience this and have a fix?
Thanks,
AndyWhat rendering output are you using? My guess is you'll have your best luck
with PDF or TIFF. HTML is pretty non-deterministic.

label and removed the right and bottom padding from the field.
