2007 Post Cards

[Phippsy]

I too have read the previous posts but they don't quite answer my question. I
have a file which worked well in 2003 with one post card size created. In
2003 when I printed it would print 4 on each landscape page all the same way
up. When I go to print multiple pages per sheet I either get sone ot them
upside down or it won't let me select 2 side by side.

Use one of the Avery templates, they work. Number 3263 in the Avery US Letter
group.

I can't seem to find it on my program. Avery US letter starts at 3270

Strange...
Use any of the Avery postcard setups. Any that have 5.5 x 4.25, landscape. 8383
or 8387

EXCELLENT - I have found an 8387 and all the right way up!!!!

Hey great, thanks for the update, it is very much appreciated.

OOps! This is fine so far but now what I do is to mail merge so they show a
ticket number as each one has a different number up to 150 but what I am
finding is that all of page 1 have a 1 and all of page 2 have a 2 etc. Any
ideas?
Thanks

Okay, try this, File, print merge, select multiple pages per sheet. There is a
print preview on this page, it should have 4 different numbers in the preview.

Excellent - thank you so much.

Hi

Not so good i am afraid. When I came to do it I found it printed incorrectly
becasue in was formatted to Letter and not A4 - I am in UK. When I changed it
to A4 it was all up the creak. I have now gone back to a previous ersion of
2003 and now they all seem to be coming up with a page of 4 with all number 1
on. I am pulling my hair out and even if I start from scratch it is wrong.
Can you take me back to basics and show me how to create a sheet of 4
invitations on one sheet with different numbers using 2003?
TThanks

Publisher 2003 will preview with all the same on each card, it is a Publisher
bug. Print a test on a plain piece of paper from the print dialogue if you are
unsure. Do you have your regional settings in the Control Panel setup for UK?
