By If you want to create something in Word that will just dazzle someone, try your hand at customized greeting cards. To set up Word to create a greeting card from a single sheet of standard letter-size paper, follow these steps: 1. Choose File –> Page Setup. Click the Margins tab. Select the Landscape option in the Orientation area. Choose the 2 Pages per Sheet option from the Multiple Pages drop-down list. This option tells Word to vertically split each page down the middle, creating (aha! — you guessed it) a greeting card. Now your document is properly formatted. All that remains is for you to fill in the greeting card with text and maybe a few graphics. But there’s a special way you need to do it! The greeting card must be four pages long: two pages on the inside and two pages on the outside. (Only one sheet of paper is used, two “pages” per sheet.) Here’s how the various pages shape up: • Page 1 is the inside left-hand page. Usually, this page is left blank. So, in your document, you can press Ctrl+Enter to create a hard page break and leave that page blank. • Page 2 is the inside right-hand page. This page is where you put your sappy message — maybe a graphic. • Page 3 is the outside “back” cover. This page can be blank, or you can put at the bottom some tiny text boasting of your word-processing prowess or that the card would have cost $3.95 ($5.95 Canadian) had you bought it at a fancy greeting card store. • Page 4 ends up being the cover for the greeting card. Put a graphic and/or flowery text here.
