Hi. Is there anyway to be able to print 2-up postcards, front to back
(two-sided), and use mail merge and have mail merge work properly???
I have read through everything I can find in Publisher Help, but with no
solution to print two-sided and use mail merge and have it print properly.
Publisher 2003 never had a problem with this and I just updated to Publisher
2007. When I went to print our 2-up postcard/two-sided like I do every 3
weeks, I found that mail merge was printing the same name on both postcards,
then the next name would print on the next 2-up postcards, etc. I read the
blogs and no it wasn't just a problem of looking at the Print Preview and
seeing this, it was actually happening when I printed too.
I found the info in the blogs and went in, made sure I was set up to see
just one postcard on the screen, then clicked print and told it to print
Multiple Pages per sheet, Number of Copies 1, set my printer preferences to
print two-sided, and the results are the same...I still get both 2-up
postcards printing the same name, etc.
The only way it works is if I do it as a single sided document. However,
this is the problem. I print 2,000 postcards and now have to just print one
side at a time. Is there anyway to be able to print 2-up postcards, front to
back (two-sided), and use mail merge and have mail merge work properly??? Am
I making an sense at all??? Totally frustrated with Publisher 2007.
