Mars needs graphic designers. Or printer-fu. Like, now.

I desire to print out invitations on nice card stock for an event. I thought this was some basic task, the ways and means of which would be obvious to the meanest understanding. Apparently it is not so, and the usual method of accomplishment is to assemble a postscript or Acrobat file with exactly what you want, and print that onto plain card stock.

I do not speak .ps or .pdf, and I like the card stock I found. I just want to print out the basic who/what/where in a pretty font on this non-fold card stock AND MAIL THE BUGGERS THIS WEEK ahem. Help? Anyone? I will give you Pez from the bee dispenser Eli presented me last week.

I last tried Open Office about a year and a half or two years ago, and it made me run screaming into the night. Mostly because it bogged my poor ickle machine no end, even when I had theoretically quit out of it. I understand it's better these days?

(DTP = Direct To Printer, I take it?)
