Default Half fold card in Publisher

Ed,

Thank you for replying, this is exactly what I ended up doing however,
Publisher wanted to insert 2 pages to which I deleted one and ended up with
three. Perhaps in my haste and frustration I did not clarify that I
completely understand that sending a page through once to print on a reverse
side is acceptable as I fully understand that, but to have to send it yet an
additional time to get a personal sentiment I made for my family members is
having to send the same project through the printer yet again. Thank you for
your help, while most people may not think to have a personal sentiment on a
card to send to family, it is important to me to send to my children who are
serving in the military and not able to make it home for Christmas, they will
appreciate a "made form the heart of mom" on the back of their card.

Kim K was very recently heard to utter:
this is exactly where I started. THe tent fold will print the front
side AND the back side. Now if I wanted to create my sentiment on
the inside I suppose I could just put the same paper back into the
printer and print the back side or page 2, but I had wanted to add a
personalized sentiment on the complete backside of the card, I
suppose I could insert a new page to accomodate waht I need to get
done, which means I have to send the same sheet of paper through
theprinter atleast twice. Is there not an easier way to make a half
fold from the top card?


Take a premanufactured card. Open it up so it is a flat piece of card.
Look at the way it's printed. There is printing on BOTH SIDES OF THE CARD.
How would you suggest accomplishing this without running the same sheet of
paper/card through the printer at least twice?

Using a tent card and Insert Page to insert the inner page is the way to
accomplish this. PagePlus cannot defy physics, and will not let you
accomplish what you want in this situation without running paper/card
through the printer at least twice.
