the individual cards from the place where they are having the wedding, but we
cannot get them to line up

What are the size of the place cards? Are there more than one card on the page? Are
you merging information? What version Publisher are you using?

The place cards are just small cards they are not on a sheet of paper, I do
not have any cards here at the moment as I kept ruining the one's they've
given me, I am using office 2003

You have to setup the printer first. If the card is, say, 4 x 6, then setup the
printer to that size, most printers have custom size options. The page setup should
reflect this setting when you click custom.
Consider your printer margin limitations as well. If your largest margin is .5 than
make all four margins .5, this will center your objects.

Word of advice - ANYTIME you are trying to print something on good card
stock, cut cheap paper down to the size you need and use that until you get
it perfect.

In addition to the advice you have already received, verify that your
printer supports that small of paper/card stock, otherwise, you will never
get it to line up or print properly.
