Can't figure out how to print on the right side of a greeting card using a 5X7 when folded

[shgilljx]

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500A.   I am trying to print a greeting card, but cannot figure out how to print on the right side of the paper so that it's on the correct side when folded.    The paper is 5X7 when folded, 10X7 laid flat.

Try using the free software from Avery called DesignPro 5.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!   I finally figured it out, had to change the direction of the text in Word, then center it, turn it upside down, etc but finally got it.  I will keep Avery in mind though.  Thanks!

shgilljx,

Welcome to the forums. I will try to explain this in simple terms, and you'll have to play with it. We'll use plain paper, cut to 10x7. You'll need a marker, 4-5 sheets of paper.  

Lay paper flat, number top 1, bottom 2. Flip paper over right to left. number top 3, and bottom 4.Draw a line where the fold would be on each page.1) Put paper with number 3 side up in printer.

To create both templates using MW Office, do this. The requires 2 documents. One is graphic, one is text.

Text template: The text will be printed on number 2.  That means your wording must be within the bottom half of the page.

Graphic template: The image must be rotated 180 degrees.The image must be within the top half of the page.

Print the text template. Insert side #3 into the printer. The text should print on side #2.

Print the graphic template: Insert side #1 into the printer. The graphic should print on side #3.

When folded, all should be correct, if I did it right.
