Adobe Illustrator/Illustrator Format Question

Question
I have created a business card in Adobe Illustrator CS Educational Edition and
haven't been able to figure out how to format it for printing using the Avery
5871 (or 10 up @ 2 in by 3.5 in). I am stuck with just one copy of what I created
on the page and have been unable to duplicate it 9 times and format the page
for 10 up printing. Please help!

Answer
Hi Nate.

You need to download the template from Avery for the 5871 first.

I think this is the template you need - I tinyurl'd it for you:

Then, you need to manually copy and paste the business card artwork to fill each spot on the template. It might help you to group the artwork first.

Good luck!

Expertise

I can help troubleshoot your Illustrator 9 through CS3 (and most CS4) problems and suggest the best way to get the results you need. Although I can help with some installation issues, my forte is prepress and how to use the tools and functions in the application itself.

Experience

I've been a graphic artist for over 20 years. Oh my God, 20 years.
