Default How do I print a blank greeting card?

Thanks for the reply. I found it the blank cards at the bottom of the list
last night and agree that it works very well.

Publisher excels at such cards. The only way to do it in Word is with a
table, with contents rotated in opposite directions for the two sides.

Older versions of Word had a template for creating a quarter-fold greeting
card. After printing, it was folded twice to produce a greeting card with
a
front page, inside message page and credits on the back. The various
pages
were roatated as required. I cannot find a template in Word 2007 or
Publisher 2007. Searches of Microsoft only produce half fold cards.
This
appears to be another Microsoft step backwards.

If this is the only way to do it why would they put the templates in
word

For this you use Publisher, which can rotate text at any angle
(including
upside-down). But see

I just posted a similar question about word 2007 using Vista. I
guess
this
is one of the problems Microsoft hasn't ironed out. I had the same
problem
in word 2003 that was in an office suite.

Basically, the answer must involve being able to flip the inside
page
text/image upside down so that it prints right side up on the lower
(inside)
half of the card. I can't find any tools or templates within Word
(Windows
XP) that allow that to be done. Any suggestions? Thank you.
