Place card Help pleeeasssse

I am all googled out, I have been trying to find a template that I can use to print my own place cards, the only one I found that was the correct size on word does not print out the width correctly and as I am not clued up on margins and other stuff on word then I am not sure how to alter the size.

Does anyone have a link for a decent template fold over style for word or a pdf, measuring about 9cm x 5cm.

I am going nuts trying to find one.....

Any help appreciated

    You can use word to create boxes that size, that's how I did the inserts to our engagement party. It's under page layout then margains or paper size. I'll see if I can find the inserts to see what I did as I'm not sure if I got more than one on a page

    It was a text box I drew, I'm on the newer word and at the end of the menu options on the right hand side you have the options to create the size. Mine were 12 x 7.

    You could use the 'labels' template and just type in every alternate row. I think it's under mailings.
