Default hOW DO i CREATE 2 STUBS DIFFERENT EMPLOYEE IN ONE PAGE

If your pay stubs are all the same size, e.g. you need two A5-sized
stubs on an A4 page (or 1/2 U.S. Letter Size) then
a. create the layout you need in the top half of the page
b. copy and paste another copy below so you have

layout A
layout B

c. add as many blank lines as you need to ensure that layout B starts
at the right point on the page, e.g.

layout A


layout B

d. immediately before layout B, use ctrl-F9 to insert a pair of
special "field code braces" { } then type the word NEXT between them, so
you have

{ NEXT }

Then merge a few records to a new document/and or to bits of paper.

If your merge is more complicated than that, you need to provide more
detail about what you are trying to do.
