How do I print multiple records to one publication page?

[Jagodie]

I want to merge records from a data source in access to publisher. I want 4
different records per page in postcard format. Each time I use the catalog
merge feature it prints 1 record 4 times on the page. How can I fix this?

You need to have one card on your screen for the merge to work. (Print preview will
show the same entry on all four cards, its a bug).

You either need to use the Mail Merge and use the single card design layout,
or the Catalog Merge and the whole page repeating-region technique.

I did use one card on my screen and when I printed it out it still had one
record 4 times.
