Need help with report (3x5) cards

[JPFred]

I have some card stock that has the following dimensions:
w=5in.
H=3in
Left and right removable margins = 1.5 in

There are 4 cards per page like:
=
=
=
=

I have done very little with reports so could some assistance. The data being printed is a barcode with the bar code "text" information on two lines i.e.
barcode uses (free 3 of 9 extended) font.

This may be TMI but like to give more then less

Thanks,

Doc

I tried to use the label wizard and no matter what I do I can only get 3 labels on a page. The label wizard is set to 3x5 size and the font for the field is 36 (free 3 of 9 extended). Am I not using the correct font?

check all your dimensions - label size and space between, top and bottom margins and don't forget the 'normal' page size and page margins - set the margins to 0

as a fix, perhaps make the label size slightly shorter and increase the vertical space between by the same amount
