Would someone provide me with information on what I require ( software- peripherals ) to achieve results in a project I am trying to accomplish ?
I am attempting to type out recipes on lined index cards (5"x8") with the resulting print running along the 8" plane.
I use a hp deskjet 612C , and windows 98se.
Any help provided is much appreciated. Thank You !

You can do this with MS Word. You can go into page setup and choose any size paper to use. File>Page Setup Paper size.

The 'Word' program, I had a handle on ! The problem arises with the printer (I BELIEVE). As the cards can only go in the printer one way (as far as I understand) they do not get printed along the 8 inch plane as needed. If I'm missing something I'dappreciate hearing back. Thank You!

Treat the cards as envelopes. If necesary you can choose to layout the print in landscape and then send the paper through as portrait. (or the other way around. It takes some fiddling, but I've done it before.
