Question
Hello Roy, You did answer this for a while:
Your Answer
I think the simplest way to do this is to set up your document with four postcards on a page.

Keep your original, single postcard file separate and just put four fronts on page one of your 4up doc and four backs on page 2 of your 4up doc. For accuracy, create guides that divide the document into quarters.

Let me know if this helps.

________

I have problems printing 4 postcards en Duplex (Indesign CS5)or (Adobe Acrobat - PDF). Impossibel to center both sides perfectly on eachother, when I try to printe en Duplex on a desktop printer. Can you help me?

Answer
Your best bet is to send the files to a local digital print shop. They have expert controls for getting the two sides to line up with each other.

I also recommend first taking your document to them to ask how best to set up your file.

Good luck!
