Default Print document 4 times on one page

I would like to print a document I create so it appears 4 times without
having to create tables and altering them by moving margins etc... I would
like it to have even margins on all sides so I can cut it out to send as a
invitation should look like this on the sheet when printed:

HI HI
How are you How are you
Very Well Very Well
Thank You Thank You


HI HI
How are you How are you
Very Well Very Well
Thank You Thank You


But all i type is the HI... one time.

Any Help with this?

There are several ways to achieve the *results* you want, but most will not
use the *means* you describe:

1. Create a 2 x 2 table and replicate the content in each cell. You either
have to use 0" margins all around (and listen to Word scream every time you
print) or make a third row and column in the middle, equal in height (row)
and width (column) to the sum of the top and bottom/left and right margins.

2. Format the page into two columns, with the space between columns equal to
the sum of the left and right columns. Place the text using Space
Before/After.

3. Create the page full size and use the "4 pages per sheet" option in the
Print dialog; this works better with European/metric sizes.

4. Create the piece in Publisher instead. You set the publication size and
create it once, then print it 4-up on the page.

There is no good way in Word to create this only once and duplicate it
effortlessly; if you have Publisher, use that.

In the File/Print dialog box, use the following options.
Page range: select "Pages", and type 1,1,1,1
Zoom: select 4 pages per sheet
Click OK
Alternatively, get the Print Wizard from www.mswizards.com
