What is the best way to design a business card using Microsoft Publisher?

The speed and ease of usage of Microsoft Publisher is good. I would like to return to it in the future to make minimalist projects like business cards. What is the easiest and fastest way to do so?

the easiest way to design is to use Microsoft publisher, especially on projects like business cards, tarpaulins, and other simple marketing ads. Hence it is quite an advantage and more choices if you will use sophisticated applications. Just set your size either European or standards for the business cards, and from there you can manipulate the contents.

Make one publishing block to scale with your business card paper or whatever size you'd like the card to be, really. It should, ideally fit on half the vertical page and, I believe 5 of them fit horizontally, making ten. Then you can make a text box and format it like you want it and place it in your main box. You can resize it in there as needed. Do the same with any other text you may want to add and with photos or graphics. You can even start out with a border inside your original box if you like and work within that. Then you can lock your card, copy it and paste it any number of times. It wont paste right on to your page. I always copy it ten times and then drag them over ti where I'd like them.

If you have some of those perforated business cards by Avery, try downloading a template made for your paper and customize that. Otherwise, you will probably be printing onto thick card stock and hand-cutting, in which case you can still use a template, or you can free yourself and design your own. I would start with two pages. Format them to match the size of the card stock onto which you'll print. Then, I would probably make some kind of grid so you get all your parts lined up. I'd fully design one card, front and back, then merge the elements and copy the whole thing into the other grid spaces. That would be a great way to make a template for yourself. It's easy to drag photos and icons into the appropriate places and edit text. I don't know of any way to apply changes to all cells in a grid, however
