Business Card Template

Post by Bob301 »

I'm trying to create set of business cards in Vista 64. I downloaded the template from Avery and loaded it into OO 3.1.1 at \AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice.org\3\user\template, It shows up in template management. However the Business Card Wizard (file | New | Business Card) does not show it as an option. Is there any way to use the wizard with the template perhaps by storing it elsewhere?

Thanks

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Basically, never put a template directly in the user profile. Use the File>Templates>Organize dialog to import it so that it's registered by OOo. Perhaps it won't help but first try that.

Thanks to add '[Solved]' at beginning of your first post title (edit button) if your issue has been fixed.

I deleted and reinserted the template through the organizer but it still doesn't show up in the form list for business cards.

I gave up on using the wizard and hand coded the business cards. This would be a nice enhancement project for someone.
