Found some cards to add to a game. I have scanned (JPG) and added them to a WORD document and now trying to print them out. There are 12 images on the front and 12 images on the back of a page. I've used tons of paper and ink in trying to align them - there's got to be an easier way that I don't know about. Help!!

It's for Talisman game adventure cards. One side is the task, the other side says ADVENTURE. I'm trying to figure out how to set margins and spacing for each side and then print two-sided. The task image is a smaller dimension than the Adventure image so that it fits inside the lines. Hoping there is a formula for margins, tabs, etc. that I just don't know about because most of my WORD experience is documents only.

The simplest way to align an image might be to right-click on the images and to choose Wrap > Square. Now the picture can be dragged to a known position, for example against the right margin.

In more complex cases, where the simple way is not enough:

• Click Layout > Margins > Custom Margins…

• In this dialog, in Pages > Multiple pages, select "Mirror margins"

• Set the following margins:

  • Top : 2.5 cm
  • Bottom : 2.5 cm
  • Inside : 3.5 cm
  • Outside : 1.5 cm

• In the Paper tab, set "Paper size" to A4

• Click OK to exit the dialog

• Click the View pane, Zoom section, select "Multiple Pages"

• The margins should now be aligned.
