AnnetteRoy -> where are the Avery templates? (3/14/2014 8:46:16 AM)

I am saddened to see how few Avery templates are available in Printmaster 6. I was a user of Printmaster 11 for years and just about any template was available....even 12 years later. Keep in mind that I am still new to Printmaster 6 and I might be missing something but....
I am trying to make an invitation (4x6) and then want to print two per sheet using Avery Product #5389. Can't figure out how to do it. Also, I want to print the "address" side of the invitation so 2-sided printing is a must.

Does anyone have any helpful tips as to how to do this. I was told that the only Avery PM6 supports is business cards.

Start a new ready-made project. Select 5389 Avery Post Cards from the Avery Template Sheets project category.

You can insert a second page for the back side.

Oh geez....I never thought to look for templates there. Thank you so much for your help. I think I can fly now[:)]

So, one more question....I have my invitation already made....lots of text boxes. I opened it and clicked "Select All" and "Copy". But when I open the Avery template, "Paste" is not an option. I really don't want to recreate it again.
Any thoughts?

Is your printer ink waterproof? Since you are mailing these invitations, waterproof ink is important. With regular ink even a tiny drop of moisture (rain, melting snow, a sneeze) will make the ink run and streak.

Professional printing, such as digital 4x6 photo printing at WalMart/ Costco/ drug stores, would solve this problem. You could put address labels on the back of the 'photos'.

It is easy to create your design and export it as JPG, for uploading to a printing service. Post back if you are interested in getting more details i.e. creating a safety zone for full bleed printing and trimming.

This program doesn't copy/paste from one project to another[:@]. A couple of workarounds: Try Edit | Change Project Size/ Type...
or
Export as best quality JPG. Open the new template. Add Photo (this JPG). Crop as needed.

Unfortunately, the 'text' will not be quite as sharp as real text in a text box.

Text can be copy/pasted to NotePad and then from there, recopied and pasted into a text box in PrintMaster. It's almost as much work as redoing the whole thing except you can export the first project SANS text, as a JPG. That way you don't have to redo the graphics.

THank you....the light bulb turned on just as I received your e-mail. The additional tips as well as the confirmation on my thoughts really helped. Thank you!
