Default landscape printing business cards

Normally, business 2"x3½" cards are created landscape 2 columns, 5 rows but
I see one could create portrait 4 columns, 3 rows; 12 cards.

I use Publisher 2000 and here is how I would get 12 cards per sheet of card
stock.

Let's assume you need some margin for the top, bottom and sides of each card
stock sheet.

File
Page Setup
Special size
Business Card
Portrait (default)
OK

Build the card
Now rotate the card 90°
Go back to
File
Page Setup
Width: 2"
Height: 3.5"
OK

Now to print a sheet of 12 cards:
File
Print
Page Options
Print Multiple copies per sheet
Custom Options
Site Margin: .25
Top Margin: .25
Horizontal Gap: 0
Vertical Gap: 0
OK
OK
OK

Be sure you do a File Save so as all the setting will be saved to the file
for the next time you want to print cards.

my previous version of publisher I could print 12 to a page landscape for
the
bus. card section, now in publisher 2007 it only prints two rows of 4 (
also
previews only this ) and leaves the last row blank.... I don't won't to
change as I have cutting equipment that only cuts this way
I talked to a Microsoft tech and he took over my computer online and was
not
able to correct the problem, he gave up ..... I have been waiting for a
fix
but nothing so far.... anyone else experience this problem
