Printing Tips for Microsoft Word

Here's how to be sure your product, page settings and printer settings can help you get the best print results.

If you have Word 2007 or a newer version, follow the instructions below to find Avery templates built in to Microsoft® Word.
Note: Older versions of Word are slightly different.

1. With your Word document open, go to the top of screen and click Mailings > Labels > Options. (In older versions of Word, the Options setting is located in Tools at the top of the page.)
2. Select Avery US Letter from the drop-down menu next to Label Vendors. Then scroll to find your Avery product number and click OK.
3. If you want all your labels to have the same information, type it into the address box and click New Document. If you want different information on each label, click New Document and then proceed to fill in your labels.
4. If your template looks like a blank page, select Layout > View Gridlines to see the template layout.
5. If your product number isn't built in to your software, you can download the template instead.

If you're working in Microsoft Word and your gridlines disappeared, you may need to enable the gridlines in order to see your actual card or label cells. If the template looks like a blank page, select Table Tools > Layout > Show Gridlines to view the template layout.

If you use Microsoft Office 2016 on a Mac computer, you can easily import addresses or other data from an Excel spreadsheet or from your Apple Contacts and add them to Avery Labels, Name Badges, Name Tags, or other products to edit and print using Microsoft Word for Mac. These steps will show you how to mail merge onto an Avery template, making it easy to prepare for mailings and meetings.

Creating your own business card template from scratch using Word is a great way to experience the joy of extreme frustration. After much pain and anguish, we finally worked through the quirks and now you can avoid similar pain by just downloading one of the free business card templates below. In addition to the business card templates, you'll also find that we've explained how to use them below - how to add your logo, how to easily modify the colors, and how to quickly copy/paste your business card.

Business Card Formats

At your local office supply store, you'll probably find 2 main types of card stock for the business cards: 10 cards per page or 8 cards per page. The purpose of the 8 per Page format is to allow you to have color that extends all the way to the edge of the card.

All our business card templates are designed for standard-size business cards: 3.5' x 2'

Tips for Customizing the Business Card Template

Editing your Business Card

TEXT: When you open the file, you'll see that only one of the business cards contains text. You will only need to edit a single business card, because you'll be copying/pasting later on.

GRAPHICS: We realize that one of the main things you'll want to do with these templates is choose your own color scheme, so we tried to make that simple by grouping all of the drawing objects (lines, background colors, etc.) so that you can change colors all at once. Hint: You can click on the 'Show/Hide ¶' button to view anchor points and tabs. You may need to use the Selection tool (the Arrow) to select some objects.

Adding a Logo to the Business Card Template

When using Word, inserting drawing objects and images can mess things up, and sometimes it does in fact take an expert to figure out why things are going wrong.

I don't guarantee that the following steps will work in all versions of Word, but hopefully you'll get the main idea and be able to format the objects and images as needed.

In Word 2003:

1. Place the cursor inside of one of the business cards.
2. Go to Insert > Picture > From File.. to insert your logo.
3. Double-click on the image that you just inserted into your business card or go to Format > Picture. If you are inserting or editing a drawing object, select it using the selection tool and then go to Format > Object.
4. In the Format Object or Format Picture dialog box, go to the Layout tab and select Behind text or In front of text (under Wrapping style).
5. In the Layout tab, click on the Advanced button, which will take you to the Advanced Layout dialog box.
6. I usually set the vertical alignment to Absolute position of X' below the Margin. Also make sure Allow overlap and Layout in table cell are selected. We have found that positioning objectives relative to the Page leads to the greatest compatibility between versions of Word and OpenOffice.

Copy Your Business Card

We designed our templates so that you can edit a single business card and then copy it to the rest of the business cards on the page. Each of the business cards represents a cell within a table. It is important that you select the entire contents of the cell.

1. Put your cursor inside one of the business cards.
2. Go to Table > Select > Cell
3. Press Ctrl+c to Copy
4. Press Tab to move to the other cells in the table if you are using the 10-up version, or use the mouse to click in the other cells if you are using the 8-up version.
5. Press Ctrl+v to Paste

Print a Test Page

What you see on your screen may not be what you see when you print (especially if graphic objects are used), so before printing out 100 sheets of unusable business cards, test on a regular piece of paper.
