bookmark template
I have the microsoft bookmark template (to create/print promotional bookmarks)
The template has 5 bookmarks on a single page - all the same. I want to create the first one and then duplicate the entire layout into the other four. Is there a way to do that automatically without using copy/paste of all the elements (text and picture) and worrying alignment issues? |

As long as you format them properly the first time, you should be able to
just then insert cross references. (Disclaimer: I'm not at all familiar with the template you're talking about.)

(I just put a 1-star rating on it, and I suggest you do the same.) There really isn't any way to be sure you aren't going to misalign the text boxes and other elements. Leaving aside my opinion that the design is fairly ugly, it should be set up in tables with form fields and cross references, so that filling in the details in the first bookmark automatically propagates to the others. I recreated the template with those features and posted it at http://jay-freedman.info for you to download.

Thanks for taking the time to come up with something better.
I'll give it a try. BRK "Anne Troy" wrote: As long as you format them properly the first time, you should be able to just then insert cross references.

bookmark template
I am not able to make any changes on your updated template.
What am I doing wrong?
