Question: I read another post that addressed this same question but I didn't find thesolution to be helpful in my situation. I created a postcard using a template from Publisher 2007 and modified it. I selected the Avery 8387 page size as I am using the Avery postcards. I then created the postcard (front and back) and then did a mail merge usingan excel sheet. Everything looked great and all the names were showing up. When I go to print, the same name shows up on all 4 postcards. My printing selections are "Multiple Copies Per Sheet" and I end up getting4 of the front which is ok but the back side of the postcard shows all 4 withthe same person. I am totally frustrated because I am also struggling with my Canon Printerputting the back side up side down. So maybe I should ask if there is a way to print all of the back side of thepostcards with the mail merge seperate. Then manually flip them over andprint them in the right direction and print off the front sides? Thanks so much! I offered to do this for someone and it needs to go outsoon.
Answer: Create two publications. Printing both sides of a mail merge is problematic.Somewhere in your printer setup will be an option to "flip pages up" or similardialog, you will want to disable this if you are duplexing.
