page layout for 4 fold Xmas card - How page layout?

[Lawrieza]

I need some help in layout and orientation of a page for Xmas cards.
I need to divide the page in four. The two top quadrants will have inserts
and text at 180 degrees and the two bottom quadrants will be normal.

For this you really need Publisher, which has built-in templates for this
sort of thing. The only way to even approach it in Word other than with
graphics is a 2x 2 table with cell contents rotated 90 degrees in opposite
directions, and this approach will greatly limit layout options. But see
