Default Copy/Paste in four quad for flier?


I need help copying and pasting for a four quadrant flier I am creating.
So far I was able to make four quadrants on a doc and I have what I
want on my doc. Problem is when I cut and paste into another quadrant
it changes everything. I highlight what I want, copy, and when I paste
it to the next qudrant, everything changes. Need help please.

Sorry, that's the wrong approach as far as Word is concerned.

Create one "quadrant" using the full page, making all the fonts twice the
size you want for the final print and making any graphics twice as wide/tall
as final size.

In the Print dialog, set the Pages Per Sheet dropdown to "4 pages" and type
1,1,1,1 in the Pages box of the Page Range section. Word will automatically
reduce the document page to half the height and width, and place four copies
of it on the paper.

Although, within the limitations of working inside a table, you can do the
2x2 approach (as Word does with "labels"). Word 2007, if you choose
Microsoft as the label "vendor," even has some standard n-up layouts,
including 1/4 Letter, that present each "label" as a separate page.
