Catolog Merge not printing multiple records per page

M

I've set up a catalog merge in Publisher 2003 where the merge area is 1/4 the
size of the page. The auto text above the box says "Area will repeat 2 down
by 2 across," so I assumed that meant it should put 4 records on a page. Yet
it doesn't do that.

When I print, it just prints one record per page.

I'm trying to capture research notes in a database app, and then merge to
publisher so I can print them, cut them apart, and organize how I'd like to.

Have you tried creating a new publication in step 5?

How much data is in the fields? Are you merging to a full page? A field cannot
be more than 255 characters.
Merged fields are truncated to 255 characters in a Publisher 2007 or Publisher
2003 publication
