As fas as Word is concerned Postcards are labels. Choose your label blank to
match your postcard stock from the vast list of label layouts provided. Then
the process is simply one of merge
http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm or
http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm . If you want to merge
to both sides of the card then you will probably need
http://www.gmayor.com/duplex_merge_data.htm
Or if you prefer, as I indicated on my web page to which you were referred,
Publisher makes the process of combining graphics and text on labels
simpler, but my web site (and this forum) is about Word and not Publisher,
so if you want to investigate the way to do it with Publisher you need a
different web site and a different forum.
As for your dismissal of watermarks, the web page you were referred to was
about graphics on labels. Watermarks are graphics.

Your Post mentioned solves a part of the puzzle; "publisher" is the
way to go for the business practice of "mucho" letters, postcards and
mail merger: "If you have access to Microsoft Publisher, then this is
a much better tool for producing labels with graphics than Microsoft
Word." Muttmind - this link mentions publisher but speaks about
word.... and wasted reading time... water marks.

4 - POSTCARDS & MAIL MERGE: MS 2007 - WORD & PUBLISHER (which is
best)? Writing is about making a picture. Most of the answers I
have read are careless in their talent to make a step by step
picture.... how to "set up a
file" to put stuff in all 4 sections of a standard postcard sheet
that you buy at Home Depot. I have tried to find the answer on You
Tube. So... once
and for all... please, I invite your talent and hard work to help
once and
for all: How to fill 4 postcards and mail merge?
Thank You from the MUTTMIND.
