Microsoft Word Help

So I finally found frames! Yay! Michaels' had them half off. They came to about $2.00 each.

So now with Word, I want to pring up the table numbers into cardstock that is 5x7.

Does anyone know how to format Word so that when I go to print them out (since the paper is smaller than 8x11) do I have to change the margins on Word first?

Thanks!
Mary

No, I don't know how to use Printshop. I hear about it alot and I don't really know what it is! I have Microsoft Works (never use that either) and MS Greetings Workshop but that's more for flyers and greeting cards and stuff.

I think I'll play around with the margins and see how it comes out before I do them on the cardstock.

I'm so happy I found the frames. Clive thinks I'm a moron but I swear I was so happy I found what I wanted!

In Word, go to File, Page Set up and then click on the Paper Size tab and then you can make it whatever you want.

HTH.

Ill bet you could use your MS greetings softwrae, thats what print shop is..its for signs, banners and cards, but its so easy to set the margins on those to a 5x 7. I would think you could act like you are making acard and then when it asks what paper you are using, it should give you the option to add your own custom paper, you can change it to 5x7, most card software can do this. Hope this helps

Thanks cplunch!

There are classes offered here, I just never have time to take any. I'm going to this summer though. I want to become better at all the programs we are starting to use at work.
