I sort of agree.

I print business cards in Publisher, and this seems to work okay (finding
the brand/size of cards lines it up). On the other hand, when I had 2003, I
could easily set up and print tent cards (bottom or side open) They would
print out 2 to a page and I'd cut them apart.

With Pub 2007 I can't seem to get this to work. Even files I have saved
from 2003 end up printing off center or one of them in the middle of the
page, or something. The print preview doesn't seem to show "print 2 to a
page". Or, maybe it's the program and the printer.

I have the same printer, too.

I think, for me anyway, it gets confusing trying to set something up in
the program, AND set up the printer to do it that way. I remember my first
printer, a Canon BJC-250. It didn't do much but print. Whatever I set up, it
would print. Simple.

Now when I make cards I set them up in Paint Shop Pro, in print layout (2
to a page).

I know this isn't Word but like you, I was all set with something in 2003
that didn't work in 07.

In a way I like ALL that 07 does, especially Word, but in another way, I
have a hard time deciding what to use, there are so many choices. Format,
wording, shapes, borders, watermarks, etc.

Default how do i print business cards?

In Word 2000 I click Tools then Envelopes & Lables then Labels Tab then
Options then scroll down the Product list to Business Card.

Has this path changed?
