Step 3: Formatting the Card in Word
I'm using Word as a demonstration, but it should not be hard to format in other programs.
Go to File->Page Setup.
Change all margins to 0.5".
Go to Insert->Text Box.
Draw Box on Document.
Right Click on the Outline of the Text Box.
Select Format Text Box.
Change Line Dashed and Weight to 0.25pt in the Colors and Lines Tab.
Change Height to 5" and Width to 7" on the Size Tab.
Note: Depending the size of the card you want, you will have to change the height and width appropriately.
Write and format the card to fit within the Text Box.
Click on the Outline of the Text Box.
Hit CTRL+C and then CTRL+V.
Move Both Text Boxes to fit on the page.
Print a test sheet on printer paper to ensure the text boxes fit and you can just barely see the outline of the boxes.
Make adjustments if necessary.
Print the page on Card Stock once you are satisfied.
