OpenOffice has some templates here: http://templates.services.openoffice.org/en/search/node/business%20card However, I would recommend the do-it-yourself route and use Inkscape. There should be some sort of template that comes with your card sheets giving the dimensions and layout. Make a grid then make your design, group all the elements and copy to the rest of the grid. Hide the grid and print. Sounds more complicated than it is. -- rich
