I'm tired of stamping all my OOF's with my contact information. Can we modify the OOF?
Thanks,
Char
 
What I did was create a file in Word with my name, phone number and website address, played around with the spacing and alignment, and then use that to print onto my OOFs.
 
I use this one, that I got from ChefAnn - then I don't have to stamp anything.

Perfect Form Becky and Chefann. No more stamping, YEAH!!!!!:chef:
 
I print one copy out, stamp (or write) my info on it as well as all the tax info, etc. and then take it to Office max for 2cent copies.

Me too. Or I copy them at church and put money in the bucket in the office for personal copies since I'm there multiple times a week. :)
