as a template in Word 2003. Thank you. Chuck |

Where can I get a 5x8 Card Template for Word 2003?
You can create a template for this custom size, but you probably won't have
much luck unless your printer supports it. 1. Create a new blank document and change the paper size to 5" x 8". If this is a built-in printer size, you're in luck; otherwise, Word will define it as Custom. (Note that some printers allow you to define new paper sizes through the printer Properties; there may be a limit to the number of user-defined sizes.) 2. Set reasonable margins and fill the card with dummy text (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/DummyText.htm). 3. Print the document on a sheet of Letter-sized paper and see where the print falls. If it's in the position where you would be feeding your card, then you're home free. If not, you'll need to create your template on Letter paper, adjusting the margins to force the active print region to the area where your card will be. 4. Save the document as a template (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...latePart1.htm). -- Suzanne S.
