Create a Layout for Postcard Sheets

DAZzle can print postcards that are in sheets (more that one postcard on each piece of paper). The sheet postcards are similar to sheet labels. In the list of labels on the Media dialog box are built-in layouts for standard Avery-brand postcard sheets.

Steps

From the Design tab, select Layout > Media (or double-click the current layout).

The Media dialog box appears.

Select the Label check box.
Select the appropriate type of label (in this case one of the postcard options) from the Label List box.
If none of the defined types matches the type of postcard you have, click the New button.
Optional: Change the settings for the selected type of postcards by clicking the Setup button.

DAZzle displays the Label Options dialog box. You can alter the number of rows, number of columns, dimensions, and margins for the selected postcard.

Click OK.
Click OK.

DAZzle displays your layout with the media that corresponds to the selected postcard. DAZzle displays a single postcard to use for your design. All elements are replicated on each postcard that you print. Use the print preview feature to view how DAZzle prints each sheet.

When designing your layout, remember that not all addresses are the same length (number of lines). Leave enough room for the longest address. You can also select the Center Vertically option in the Address dialog box to help with the alignment.
