Default printing cards

I want to print study information on 3 x 5 cards. For example, a
question on one side and the answer on the other. Is this possible?
Using Word 2000.

Thanks!
Mark

It is possible if your printer supports that paper size and much easier if
it also duplexes. If you have to depend on sheets of cards, then getting the
information on the reverse of the flash cards to match what's on the front
is a bit more challenging.

Still don't understand. How do you setup Word to do this? What do you mean by
"much easier if it also duplexes"?

If your printer supports the 3x5 paper size, you simply choose that paper
size in Page Setup. If it doesn't, then you'll probably find that you end up
having to set up that size on the next-larger size that your printer does
support, adjusting the margins accordingly.

If your printer were able to duplex (print on both sides automatically), I
think you would know it. Failing that, you will have to duplex manually.

Ok now I understand, and no it doesn't duplex. You have to print odds the turn
over the stack and print evens.

Thanks for the help.
