Attention computer geeks:?

Question

My mom got Avery business cards. We can't find the template on Microsoft Word. The Avery number is 8871, and we can't find it when I go to Tools, Envelopes and Labels, and Options.


Also, i don't want to sound rude when i say 'computer geeks', i'd take that as a compliment.

Answer 1

Found 'em!! The template is on the Office website at this address.

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TC011601801033.aspx?pid=CT101043091033

Just click (or copy) this link and it should take you right to the template download page.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

You probably need additional software for business cards, the only support for avery is labels. Try creating your own label template by measuring the cards, testing on ordinary paper to compare, this way you do not waste any cards.
No offence taken, I've been called much worse in my time!

Answer 3

Avery should have a webpage to go to to download the template and import in to MS Word. Look on the package that the cards came in.

On the Tools menu, click Envelopes and Labels, and then click the Labels tab.

In the Address box, do one of the following:
Enter or edit the address.


Insert an address from an electronic address book.


If you want to use the default return address, select the Use return address check box, and then edit the address if necessary.
Under Print, do one of the following:
To print a single label, click Single label. Then, type or select the row and column number on the label sheet for the label you want to print.


To print the same address on a sheet of labels, click Full page of the same label.
To select the label type, the type of paper feed, and other options, click Options.
If the type of label you want to use is not listed in the Product number box, you might be able to use one of the listed labels, or you can create your own custom labels.

For Help on an option, click the question mark and then click the option.

In the Envelopes and Labels dialog box, do one of the following:
To print one or more labels, insert a sheet of labels into the printer, and then click Print.


To save a sheet of labels for later editing or printing, click New Document.

Answer 5

It looks like you didn't copy the files, but you made a shortcut to them. A shortcut is basically a sign post saying "Look over here instead". Since "over here" (the original folder) doesn't exist on the other computer, the directions don't work, so the computer complains. Since you've deleted the original from the other computer, you've lost those too. Sorry to say, but this isn't really recoverable. You might try a data recovery specialist, but they are expensive, and formatting the hard disk and installing a fresh operating system on it will make it very unlikely that they could recover much.

Answer 6

hehe definatly a compliment but on to bussiness what i usually do is print a test on plain paper to see how it lines up compared to the bussiness card lines. may have to try acouple different templates or use a custom bussines card template which you should be able to do in the program useing the measurement sheet that came in the package of bussiness card paper.
