 ## Features
 
 * Customizable for most label sheet layouts.
+* Partial sheet printing
 * Custom data for each label
-* Uses HTML templates for easy customization
+* Uses HTML templates easy label design.
 
-## TODO
+## Usage
+
+The simplest use case is some static labels:
+
+    python -m pylabel -t examples/simple.html -p avery.L7157 -c 10 > output.html
+
+Then, when you need some more just pop the same sheet back in the printer and offset the start
+
+    python -m pylabel -t examples/simple.html -p avery.L7157 -c 10 > output.html
+
+To do some mail merge operations create a list of names:
+
+    Andy Andrews
+    Bob Brown
+    Charlie Chaplin
+
+and use a `{data[text]}` element in your template.  Note we've shifted to an external stylesheet now as well.
+
+    python -m pylabel -t examples/name_tags.html -p avery.L7157 -d examples/names.txt -s examples/hello.css > output.html
 
-* Switch to profiles for command line usage
-* Switch to
