how do I divide my document into 4 equal parts?

I am making up a post wedding invitation. I want to print it out on a regular
piece of card stock. There will be 4 invitations per page. How can I get each
invitation centered (vertical & horizontal) in it's own 1/4 section of the
paper? I know there has to be an easy answer...It is just eluding me.
THANKS!
Rae;-)

What version of Word? Assuming 2003, try:

File - Print, and set Pages per sheet: to 4.

I am sorry...I am working with Office 2003.
The 4 sheets to a page didn't help. But thanks!

I GOT IT! I fooled around with the margins then used trial and error. Just
think there should be an easier way!

Tools | Letters and Mailings | Envelopes and Labels. On the Labels tab,
click Options and select Avery 5845 Note card, and click OK. In the Labels
dialog, click New Document. This will create a sheet of four cards. They are
set up as a table, so be sure you display table gridlines (Table | Show
Gridlines) so you can see the card boundaries.

I'm glad you got it working. However, I'm surprised that 4 pages per sheet
didn't work for you, since I've used that approach for invitations many
times, and it's worked perfectly without a lot of trial and error. The key
for me was to use both vertical and horizontal centering, which eliminated
trial and error.

But using "4 pages per sheet" requires that you set the invitation up as a
full sheet and then reduce it, which requires trial and error on font sizes.
Not to mention that it works a lot better with A sizes (A4, A5, etc.) than
with U.S. sizes since the A sizes all have the same aspect ratio.
