Hi,

I've been asked to come up with tickets for a works retiral "do".

I've used Publisher 2007 to do this and used the "business cards" templates to achieve the end result which is looking good.

However, what I now want to do is to add numbers to the front of each ticket in a discreet position in the bottom of one of the corners.

There are going to be 200 tickets and what I am trying to work out is how to add "001", "002", "003" etc, etc all the way up to 200 to each ticket?.

Is that possible?. Easy option would just be print them all out and use a marker pen to number them but that would look a bit naff. :p

Initially I was asked if it would be possible to put the numbers on the back of the tickets but I thought it would be difficult enough to get them on the front never mind the rear.

Any ideas?.

Ta. :cool:
 
LOL, and to think I have had it installed for ages and never ever tried it. :rolleyes: :p

Going to have a play around with it later. :cool:
 
Just fired up InDesign and had a play.

Haven't a clue what I'm doing, very different from what I am used to with Publisher!!!.

Looks a tad more powerful though so will keep at it. :p
