Here are some ideas:

1. Print on both sides

2. Don't describe all the food (like appetizers and desserts) just put the meal option

3. Go to Quick Pick on 110 and buy longer paper - they have good prices

I got your email and I am playing now. Are you set on Palace Script? It's a little scripty for the menu items but looks nice for the headers.

ETA: It's my pleasure

And I am emailing you now.

Re: problem with making the menu!!!!!

yes, it's palace!!!
so you think i should just do that for the headers and not the descriptions or choices??

Re: problem with making the menu!!!!!

oh, it looks so much better then when i did it!
do you think the font is ok, or do you think i should change it??

regarding the pink over the ivory paper....do you think enough of the ivory will show??

I think the ivory & pink would look good. How much ivory shows through depends on the size of the it. The margins & text are pretty tight on the pink menu part so you are going to have to use full sheets of paper for the ivory matting and then it can be trimmed to any size you want.

I just emailed you another copy which I think looks a little clearer.
