Default put 4 postcards on an 8-1/2 x 11 in landscape

How do I put 4 postcards on an 8-1/2 x 11 in landscape mode? On the old
Publisher, I found a setting in Avery that would do it. I'm so confused now.
Are there Avery templates in 2007 Publisher and if so, how do I access Avery
templates to accomplish this. It's probably really simple but I haven't been
able to figre it out.

There is a template for Avery postcards, 4 to a sheet. When you are at
"Getting Started" enter 3263 in the "search for templates" space. Hit enter.

Hit enter and then what? The 4 on a page is in the far right and I don't
know how to choose it. Walk me to the end where I actually have a new
created template that I can access.

In the middle of the page you have your choice of orientation. Do you want
the card to have the long side left to right or top to bottom? Pick the one
you want. When you postcard comes up, apply a template if you want. (Click
on the Change template button on the left).

I pickoneout of the middle of the page and no postcard that I've saved
comesup. The only place that shows the four per page is in the far right
column and I haven't been able to pick it. Everything in the center shows
one copy per page in various orientations. I need very detailed instructions
on how to pick things you're telling me to pick. I can get the 3263 and then
that's about it. It even says in the far right column that it's business
card size, not postcards. You think this is easy but it's not for me. I
haven't a clue what you're talking about. Speak like you would to a lay
person. I'm not a tech person.

No, you will not get a previously created postcard. You are strarting from
scratch. (If you have a design already you will have to do a copy and
paste - but let's not deal with that for now.)

No, you cannot pick the cards on the right of the screen - that's just a
preview of what you will get.

Yes, it does show one postcard in that center section. Double click on the
orientation you want. Apply a template - any one will do for now. Do a Print
Preview. How many cards do you see?

I can see it's not easy for you and I have been keeping it very simple.
