Gordon what version of Publisher are you using?  Signature"If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" YOU'RE BACK!!!! :-) SignatureJoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] > Gordon what version of Publisher are you using? hmmmmm well last time I checked I had not left this earth - to venture elsewhere. NASA have a backlog on bookings. They have me right at the top of the list now!!! However, NASA Earth Observatory are considerate and send me some gorgeous and interesting pictures and some highly thought provoking pictures at times. Earth Observatory weekly mailing -- http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/ I have just been occupied elsewhere, in some areas I would prefer to be, and others areas I would not. Signature"If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" Very cool! I figured you were off panning gold somewhere. I may regret saying this later but I missed you. ;-) SignatureJoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] > hmmmmm well last time I checked I had not left this earth - to venture > elsewhere.

We have had a 100mm/4" rain so far this month. Appears the drought has broken. We are having proper winter weather for the first time in 3 years. Signature"If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" That sounds good - will that make for a decent wine this year for you?

We are having > proper winter weather for the first time in 3 years. Yes it should help, but cold winter weather is one of the best things. Has been pretty cold and heaps of snow. Probably had the highest snow falls this early in winter for a long time. It has snowed down to 200meters/660', which is low. Have had roads closed due to snow that have not been closed for around 25 years the locals tell me. I don't mind winter at all. One thing I really like about winter when it is cloudy and cold you can go out into the wilderness and a lot of the animals are out during the day. Australian animals are nocturnal (only come out at night). We have an incredible range of animals and magnificently coloured birds in this area. Signature"If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" Set the printer up first to 11x17 portrait. The following is for Publisher 2000 and below. In the page setup select special size, postcard. Create your postcard and merge area. When you go to print, in the print dialogue, click page options, custom options, set the margins and gaps to zero. Keep in mind your printer margins when you create your postcard design.

Thanks a lot for your help Mary. That worked with Publisher 98. Is there a solution for versions of Publisher newer than 2000? If possible, I would rather use XP or 2003. If not, I can just use Publisher 98. >-----Original Message----- >Set the printer up first to 11x17 portrait. The following is for Publisher 2000 and [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >. It is the same for all versions. Much, much more friendly in 2002 and 03.
