I have a sample postcard that is a quarter size (5.5&#8243;x4.25&#8243;) front and back for mailing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Once your design is complete, go to File&gt;Print<\/li>\n<li>Choose &#8220;Full Page Slides&#8221; under Print Layout, making sure &#8220;Scale to Fit Paper&#8221; and &#8220;High Quality&#8221; are checked.<\/li>\n<li>Next, you&#8217;re going to trick the program. We want to print 4 fronts on one side, and 4 backs on the other. So in the &#8220;Slides&#8221; box, type: <strong>1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2<\/strong>. This will print 4 of page 1, and 4 of page 2.<\/li>\n<li>Select Printer Properties. Your print dialog box might look different from what is shown, but hopefully it will have a lot of the same options.<\/li>\n<li>Under &#8220;Layout&#8221;, select &#8220;4 Pages per Sheet&#8221;. Leave the Page order as is, since it will be 4 of the same page.<\/li>\n<li>Then under &#8220;2 sided&#8221; select &#8220;Short Edge Bind (Open Top\/Left)&#8221; since this is in the Landscape view. If &#8220;Landscape&#8221; isn&#8217;t selected, choose it now.<\/li>\n<li>Double-check that it is set to 4 Pages per Sheet, 2 Sided and say &#8220;Ok&#8221;. The view will still show a single page, but it will print 4-up on yours.<\/li>\n<li>If you need to print multiple pages, change the number next to &#8220;Copies&#8221; at the top (ex. if you need 100 postcards, type 25 copies)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: There will be a white margin around the edge. This is common since printers aren&#8217;t able to print all the way to the edge, so you can choose to trim off that extra white, or allow for the extra buffer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_990\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-990\" style=\"width: 770px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.oregonstate.edu\/marketing\/2018\/07\/03\/printing-4-up-in-powerpoint\/20180703_131039\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-990\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-990\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.oregonstate.edu\/marketing\/files\/2018\/07\/20180703_131039-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/319\/files\/2018\/07\/20180703_131039-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/319\/files\/2018\/07\/20180703_131039-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/319\/files\/2018\/07\/20180703_131039-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-990\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Showing the front and back<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, and good luck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know that Microsoft Powerpoint has the ability to print 4-up on a page, and double-sided?
