I am using publisher to make business cards, however when i select..
"business cards options" it puts 10 to a sheet automaticly, but with no crop
marks/lines, for me to cut them later on
DOnt tell me i have to creat my own template and insert the business card
temp. into that?

==================================
Here's a dweeby little trick that works for me.

With your card on screen, make a text box that exactly
frames the outer edge of the card. Go to..Line/Border
Style and choose 1/4 pt. This will place a fine line around
the edge of the card.

On your print screen, at the "Change Copies Per Sheet"
button...set the Horizontal and Vertical gap to Zero.
Try .7 for the side margin.

The result should be a printed page with only a line
separating the cards. Cut the line...you're done.

TY, sounds nice, i only forgot to mention, that i was going for lines that
run from the card to very edge of the paper ( in the 4 corners) ,but to me,
it seems i cant do it without makeing a whole new template for it.

I understand but my method leaves
a thin line separating each card...it
makes them quite easy to cut out.

James,

Why not buy Business Card labels? Much easier than trying to cut them
yourself.
