I need to printed on a pre-printed invoice form.
a)I have mail merge data for Bill and Ship to that has merged data in it
b)Then a text block
c)Then a return tear off that has merged data in it

I need each of these 'sections' to begin at a specific spot on the page, but
I can't seem to get the data to STAY in the exact same spot on the paper.
(a) needs to start at the top of the paper to 2.5 inches
(b) needs to start 2.75 inches from the top to 4 inches from the bottom
(c) needs to start at 7 inches from the top to the very bottom of the paper

Any help or guidance is deeply appreciated.

Darryl

Use a (borderless) table that fills the page and merge the cells of that
table that cover the three spaces on your form. Put your merge fields in the
three remaining cells.
