Get them all on a single sheet...

[Quote:] I have created a business card. now I want to create layout of 8 them on an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper stock. I tried looking at picture package, but it doesn't have the sizes for the individual cards that I need. is there a way to lay the cards out without having to do them individually? any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks, boyd.

If one card you've created prints the way you want it, then just duplicate the layer and drag the card layers into position.

The file size should be 7 inches by 8 inches. Once open, you can set up Ruler guides at the center line (3.5" over) and horizontal breaks every 2 inches to position the images.

Once you've duplicated the layer with the card, and moved the cards into position with the Move tool, flatten the file or merge the layers and print.

Do you need a pictorial tutorial of this? If you do, just let us know by posting your request here
