It is the same for all versions. Much, much more friendly in 2002 and 03.

Hi Mary. I had tried to do this in both 2002 and 2003 before, but it only allowed me to print 6 up. My question was if it would be possible to print 8 up on these newer versions of publisher. Following your directions, I can only get it to work in Publisher 98.

Setup your printer to 11x17. In Page setup, select custom, input 5" wide, 4.25 high,
portrait, change "copies per sheet", set all the gaps to zero. You will have 8 postcards. -- Mary Sauer MS MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://www.mvps.org/msauer/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Jeremy" wrote in message ... Hi Mary.
