Dinner place cards
I'm looking for a template or similar to create tent cards.
Size would be about 9cm (3 1/2 in) x 5cm (2in)
One side of the tent would be persons name, other side would be menu choice.
Open to any suggestions

PlumptonRobin Avery C32073 is a tent card template for place cards that are 85mm x 50mm. Is that what you are using, or are you intending to print onto plain card and cut and fold?
the Avery C32073 product does not appear in the list of "labels" in Word and while there is a template for it that you can download from the Avery website, quite frankly, it was designed by someone who did not know the first thing about how it should be set up and you may find it very difficult to use.
If you are using a commercial product, if can let us know the exact details of it (similar to those that appear if you click in the image below, I will set one up for you.
I assume that you will be using mail merge to create the cards and it that is the case, if you let me know the fields that you have in the data source, I will set it up so that it is ready to go.
I have attached a mail merge main document set up for 90 x 50 Tent Cards, but the top margin may need to be adjusted to suit the media that you are using.
