HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
I wish to set up a printing template for pages for a Personal Filofax-type
Organiser, so that I can PRINT pages [albeit onto an A4 sheet - then cut it to size & hole it] rather than WRITE it [by hand]. Is there a quick way of doing this? Mike Phillips |

HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
Take a piece of paper from your organizer. Clip it to the top left hand
corner of the A4 paper and draw round it. Discard the organizer page and measure the unwanted area. Add sufficient extra for holes and margins and set the page margins to match. Choose the mirror margins option. Add some text and format to taste. Check that it prints OK then delete the text. Save as a template. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Mike Phillips wrote: I wish to set up a printing template for pages for a Personal Filofax-type Organiser, so that I can PRINT pages [albeit onto an A4 sheet - then cut it to size & hole it] rather than WRITE it [by hand].

HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
If the issue is just the handwriting aspect, I'd be tempted to find a label
that would fit on the page and enter the data on the label. Stick the label on the page and you're done. If the issue is buying FiloFax pages, it seems like you're wasting a lot of paper is you start with an A4 sheet to do one entry. Maybe you could use smaller stock instead. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
You can buy filofax paper, two sheets to the page, but no Microsoft
software that I have found can print to that format. In fact the only software I ever found that could print to it were an ancient DOS application called Portex and the very annoying and expensive ClickBook. Progress?

HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
I haven't used a paper organizer (outside of notes scrawled on whatever is
handy) in about 10 years. I kept forgetting to carry it with me. I'm a little better now with computers and Outlook - but I still have a long way to go. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

HOW DO i SET UP A PAGE LAYOUT FOR FILOFAX
I use a Day-Timer, but it is the wirebound kind, exclusively handwritten,
and I don't carry it with me anywhere except on trips. It stays on my desk (but then I work at home, so it's with me pretty much all the time, anyway). -- Suzanne S.
