Can anyone recommend a nice way to print Entourage's Address Book?

I need a hard copy of my address book. I have about 400 people in a mailing
list that I want to print out. I would like something that can output in
some nice format (or have options/choices).

Anyone know of a good way to do this?

I don't know what Entourage's printing options are like, but one way to
customize it would be to use Word to do a merge, using the Office Address
Book as the source.

In Word, start with Tools | Data Merge Manager. You probably want a Catalog
merge. If you work your way through the Merge palette experimenting, you'll
see what choices you have. I think you would put the address book fields in
the Word doc, then set up and format the fields as you want, then merge. You
cannot destroy anything by experimenting with this.

Ask on the Word ng if you need more help.

There are plenty of options for formatting the address book built into
Entourage - you can have a choice of layouts, including or excluding
specific fields etc, selected between several 'standard' formats like
Franklin etc, or making your own.

Explore the options when selecting 'print' in an address book window.

Yes, there are some options in Entourage's Printing dialog, but for sheer
utility, compare to the formatting choices in Palm Desktop. Curiously,
Entourage lacks the ability to specify font face and size, thus limiting the
ability to control the number of contacts per page. It also lacks choices
for page orientation, centering, and the critical single/double-sided/folded
printing option. One expects at least as much from a newer, full-blown
productivity suite like Entourage, as one does from an older, unsupported
one like Palm Desktop.

How about exporting as a tab-delimited text file and importing it into
FileMaker Pro (if you have it). Then you can do anything you want with
it.
