Hi  need a guru here.  Trying to make some thank you cards to get printed.

Publisher knows how to make cards, but seems to assume the 1 pice of paper = 1 card.  Using a tri folder (in half down the long edge then in half again).  This allows printing on only one side of the sheet of paper, but is wasteful. I want to use a duplex printer and print on both sides.

Cards are to be A6 sized unfolded.  So on one a4 sheet (landscape) i should be able to get 4 cards. when printing on both sides of the sheet. 

How can I make publisher do this?  I could probably fudge it in word with tables etc, but would like to give publisher a go.

Why not use the postcard template this would allow 4 cards double sided as you do not plan on folding them.

Good Luck

Ta. Using the Postcard like you said, and putting the two pages (front rear, an the two inside) on one "page" allowed me to do it.
