Post Cards

[Gene Stickley]

I am attempting to use a mail list with Standard USPS
post cards. I selected the envelope option but the
system told me that the minimum sizes to be used were
width 6.4" height 2.13". Has anyone used post cards
successfully? And, if so, how. Thanks in advance.

Change your page size to a width of 6" and a lenght of 4"
and select Landscape. Set margins as desired, sometimes
it give you message that the margins are out of printable
area, but most times if your printer will print other
documents with the same margins - the document will print
OK.
Place your return address in the upper left hand corner -
after the last line in the return address set the
paragraph spacing down at 72 pt., return to the next line
and set your indention of 2", start setting up your mail
merge with the first line then reset your spacing down
back to zero - finish your address lines. I hope this
will help you.

Postcards are labels - not envelopes.
There are several links from http://www.gmayor.dsl.pipex.com/Word_pages.htm
concerned with the use of labels.
