I did mine with Excel. Actually I did the whole company's.
The magic tricks were varying the row heights and having each person's
details on separate sheets. Once you had one right, doing 10 per A4
page was a piece of cake. Simply a formula referring to the master copy
at the top left of the page. The master copy had a formula which got
the sheet number for each different card. A better way would have been
a macro to populate each card, but I was in a hurry.

It also helps to have a very good guillotine to chop them up afterward.

Here's an alternative:

Go to
<http://office.microsoft.com/templates/category.aspx?CategoryID=CT0619948010
33&CTT=4&Origin=ES790000301033>

Find a basic template you like (you can customize later) and have a friend
with a PC download it and send it to you. (Don't ask! It's one of those
dumb MS things: While you can use these templates just fine, you can't
download them onto a Mac.)

Hope this helps.
