Wallet Sized Card Printing ...
Hi:
How can I take my already typed up Word .doc file and make it so that when it prints out .... it will only fill up say about the top 1/4 of the page. I want to be able to keep my pre-printed large format, but when I print, I would like the output to be small (so I can make a wallet sized card). Thanks in advance! |

Answer: Wallet Sized Card Printing ...
Printing a Wallet-Sized Card from Word
To print your Word document in a way that will create a wallet-sized card, you can adjust the page layout and print settings. Here's how:
Your Word document should now print out as a small card that fits within the dimensions you specified. Keep in mind that you may need to adjust your font size and formatting to make sure everything fits on the smaller page size. I hope that helps!

You can add a frame to a new page and paste in your original content.
Then hit Ctrl + A to select all and hit Ctrl + Shift + to bring the font size down. Granted, you may have to make additional formatting adjustments to make any spacing less than you had in proportion to the font. Once you get one frame set the way you want...copy it 3 more time to the page and print. See this TechTrax article for more help using frames...

FWIW, I find the "2 pages per sheet" option in Page Setup even more useful.
