Default 2 sided card setup

:

I am in MS Word 2003. I would like to make a document, printed back to
back, that I can have laminated and cut into 4 separate cards. The
original document is a 3 inch by 4 inch (top to bottom) card, with text
on both sides, meant to carry in a lab coat pocket. Can someone advise
the best way to go about setting this up? I've tried putzing around but
am not having much luck. Thanks! Colleen.


I think text boxes, set up to link one to the next, are your
solution. They should be in fixed positions.

I've done this in the past with 2 each on front and back. Being
spatially challenged :-) I needed several tries to link the boxes in
the right order. Once I got them set up, it was great: when I did any
edits the text just flowed to the *logical* next box even though it
wasn't next physically on the screen.
