[DXBase] Importing Card Template from Word file

[Joe Glockner]

Chuck,

Looking on the Internet at the Avery 8387 .. it says that
it is 4 cards per sheet and each card is 5.5 X 4.25" ..

Since there is no way to IMPORT a template .. you can go into
the label designer and click-on Project / Page Setup  and
then at the Page Setup TAB, you type in the information about
your 8387... 

I assumed that the 4 cards per sheet are layed out so that
the 4.25 is the Horizontal size and the 5.5 is the Vertical
Size ...

Being an 81/2 X 11" sheet .. I put in 4.25 in the SIZE Horizontal
and 5.5 in the SIZE Vertical.. Then, put in 2 for the NUMBER Horizontal
and 2 for the NUMBER Vertical..  I assumed that the OFFSET and
DISTANCE categories are 0.00 ... again, I am assuming a lot on
this setup - since I have never seen the 8387..

If you need further info - feel free to send me an email..
