printing mma cards advice

[rickert]

How do many of you print out the MMA booklegs offered in this section? Do you just save them as picture files and then put them onto a document and print them that way? If sao can you get four on a sheet?

Any advice would be appreciated.

I right click on the image and select "save image as" and save it to my file on the hard drive. Then, depending on what program you are currently using (I use Coral Draw) import the picture into the document and print.

Now, with myself, being I use Coral Draw, I have a template all set up and I do put four cards to a page.

I'm not sure how well schooled you are at the various programs like Microsoft Word, Publisher, etc... but you can set up templates to put pictures in and print off. Hopefully you have some program knowledge to do this, otherwise, you might have to gain some assistance from a buddy or friend to achieve this!?

don't know if I was much help, but doing 4 to a page can be done, and is probably the most economical way of doing it!

I use infranview for my photos. I do have rudimentary knowledge of Word and Publisher. I will try to use one of those to print them out and see what happens.

Can anyone tell me what the size of the cards should be to get four to a page?

Thanks

Well, if you use exactly a quarter of a regular size sheet, it would be 4'' by 5 1/2''. I might go a little smaller all around to make it a bit easier to cut them though.

Yeah, when I made my template, they are a little bit smaller than the "official" cards, but they work for what I need. I did my best to get the page quartered to that the cards are all the same size and it's close enough for me! haha
