*Print 3x5 Cards In Word For Mac X
Mar 30, 2020 Scan the dropdown menu that appears after you click Size, and find and click on the Index card - 3' x 5' option. If a 3' x 5' card turns out to be a little smaller than you would like, other size options exist in this dropdown menu, including the postcard size, which is 4' x 6'. Print the cards. Insert page breaks by scrolling down to the next page if you desire to print multiple 3' x 5' cards. On the File menu, click Print. To preview each page, click the arrows at the bottom of the preview. If you don't see the preview, below Presets, select Copies & Pages and check the box next to Show Quick Preview. Choose the number of copies, and any other options you want, and click the Print button. This would indicate it will handle a 3 X 5 card, but I can't firgue out where to load it. The paper width-guide in the paper tray won't collapse down to 3'. If you try putting in the index card and collapsing the paper width-guide to 5' you receive a msg stating the paper is too short and the minimum length is 4.9' and the card length is only 3'.

You can use Word to create business cards from a template or from scratch. However, if you have Microsoft Publisher installed, that’s your best bet for making business cards.
If you’re going to use Word to create your business cards, your next best bet is to start with a template from Office.com. The business card shown here is a template on Office.com. With a template, you can include graphics on your business card–for example, your company logo. Just be sure to note what size card the template uses.
To see all this in action, watch Office Casual: How to make a business card in 90 seconds. Pokemon fire red randomizer download 4shared.Text only?
If you want to do it all yourself and you want only text on your business card, you can use purchased business card cardstock and the Envelopes and Labels dialog box. You’re going to create a label that’s the size of your business cards.
If you’re using Word 2003, see Make business cards using Word.
If you’re using Word 2010 or Word 2007, start by checking the size and the product number of the business cards that you’ve purchased. You can even write it down.
Next, click the Mailings tab, and then click Labels.
Now, click Options.
In the Label vendor box, click the manufacturer of your business cards. Under Product number, choose the business card number you want, and then click OK.
(If the product number you want is not listed, one of the listed labels still may be the size paper you want.)
In the Address box, type the company and contact information you want to display on your business card.
Special tip: Press SHIFT+ENTER between the lines that are in the same block (for example, your name and address). That will keep all the lines in the same paragraph, and make it easier to indent them or change their vertical position.
Select the text. Right-click to show the shortcut menu, and then choose the formatting and alignment options you want.
You can change the font and size.
You can change the alignment or indent the text.
Under Print, leave the default selected, Full page of the same label.
Now you can print your business cards by clicking Print (be sure to load your business card cardstock into the printer first). Or you can click New Document and then save your business cards for printing later.
— Joannie StangelandIs there any way to print onto 3x5 recipe/note cards?
I have been taking a lot of notes on my computer for school. I'd like to take some of these and print them onto 3x5 recipe cards, for organizing when I write papers and such. I've tried doing this in Word, but it doesn't seem to work-- it is as though Word is expecting a larger piece of paper to go through the printer. The card slides through, it prints onto nothing, and then the next one comes through, and it prints onto nothing. I have adjusted the paper size but to no avail. I'm willing to go with a standalone program on this one, though if so, the cheaper (or free-er) the better.
I'm working on a Macbook, with an Epson R200 printer.
(By the way, I know there are programs that can arrange notes onto cards on the screen [Scrivener] but I want physical copies of these things.)posted by synecdoche to Computers & Internet (8 answers total) 3 users marked this as a favoriteHave you tried sending a letter sized sheet of paper through the printer, when you've told the printer to expect a notecard? Sometimes the printer doesn't put the image where you think it will, and you'll need to be crafty to make the physical placement of the odd-size paper match the printer's behavior.
In general, yes, it is possible. I have done it, although not recently. I am not an expert in Word, but I would guess that you need to adjust the nominal paper size of the document, and then set the paper size again in the printer settings.

Avery makes perforated notecard paper, and then you set up a 'label' template, and print onto that

What about printing to labels, and then sticking the labels on the index cards?
Regarding Word, there are two places I usually change the paper settings, and one is in File>page set up, and the other in the File> Print> Properties.

You may want to try putting text on ALL of an 8.5 x 11' page, print that as an 8.5 x 11' page, and feed an index card through. See where the image lands. Chances are it's not printing where you're expecting.
Barring that, yeah, try the Avery sheets.

Thanks-- it was the double paper size thing. It is working perfectly now.

I know I'm a little late to the party, but, is there any chance you could share the settings you use?
I've got an Epson R200 -- I want to print on real 3x5 index cards -- not overpriced Avery perf sheets.
Also, can you explain the 'double paper size thing?'

Snakey, I was referring to the paper size being set in two different places, as described in b33j's reply.
