If you're among those many folks who know word processing a whole lot
better than you know Filemaker's Layout Mode, then I'd suggest that you
export your records (Output->File Export->For Mailing Labels. Export to a
file type of "Merge (.mer)". The default fields for export will include a
field named "Name Line"; you should clear this field from the export order
and instead export the field named "Name Line\Label". You can then create
your postcard in your word processor using this file as a merge file,
placing the fields exactly where you want them.
