Centre text but not in the middle of page?

I have some invitations to print. I need to fit 4 on one A4 but when I centre the text it goes in the middle of the page which means I'll only get two on a page. Is there another way to do this? Thanks

    is it something to do with the margins you have set up on the page?

    good luck.

    You could create a 2 column table, type the invitation into one cell, centre it there then copy the text to the other cells. You can fiddle around with cell height to get the invitations the size you want. You can either leave the borders to guide you when cutting the paper or change to borderless.

    This is the best answer & would just add to make sure you orientation is correct. If you want wide rather than tall, change to landscape.
