"Table Tents"

I have Office 2007 and can use Publisher or Word. I need to make "table
tents" for 30 different exhibitors' tables, for a non-profit expo. My idea
is to turn an 8.5 X 11 page to landscape. So I have the 8.25 up and down.
Then I just need to write one line of text in Cambria 48 text size- twice on
each page. I would like to print two of the exhibitors per page
(non-profit, you know). Splitting it at ~4.0. Each Table tent would be cut
to a 11 X ~4 inch size and then that would be folded in half. I would fold
over each half page, and the name would be visible at the bottom 2 inches of
that 4 inches. Any hints would be so appreciated. I have looked at foldover
cards that apparently come with a template. I want the 'Table tent" to be
quite plain with maybe a line around all the edges to look more finished.

Thanking you so much for any help you give me !!

aloha,

File, Page Setup, Advanced (on the right), scroll down to folded card, select
*half-page, top fold*
Type 4.25 width, 5.5 height. Publisher will ask about two pages, select yes.

In the Publication screen, Insert 2 pages.
Publisher will automatically rotate pages 2 and 4. You might have to do some
adjustment. I have found Publisher will do strange things in this setup, but
eventually it will be okay. Patience wins out. Be aware of your printer margin
limitations.
