    Hey guys I made a business card design in illustrator and then tried to match it up to an avery template which was used for the business card stock I bought from them (pre perforated). However, I can’t seem to match up my design (using the rulers in inches) to match up to the card stock with it’s perfprations. Any ideas?

    The last time I did it I printed the template then scanned it.
    I then placed it in a document, printed and made adjustments til it was about right.

    If I were to do it again I think I would try the following method 1st.

    >create document the size of the template
    >hit f
    >hit apple 0(zero)*I use a Mac*
    >place template
    >start new layer
    >place bus card(s) in spaces made for cards

    Cheers,

    Joe
