How can I print a "centered" 5X7 inch invitation?

[BabyShowerInvitation]

I am trying to print a 5X7 inch invitation, and for some reason, it prints
way off to the left and cuts off the text. I have gone into Page Setup and
selected Custom Size 5X7 and also selected to "center" the invitation. Does
anyone have any advice on how I can get this document to print on the center
of the paper?

Thank you!

Try printing on a standard Letter-size sheet. This will show you where your
printer expects your paper to be fed. If it is not practical to feed it
there, then you'll need to set up the 5x7 form in the center of a
Letter-size document (adjust the left and right margins accordingly), then
feed your 5x7 in the center of the printer.

Go to Tools, Letters and Mailings, Envelopes and Labels, Printing Options,
and select the feed method. I assume you'll select one of the center feeds.
Click OK. If it automatically changes your paper size, go to File, Page
Setup, Paper, and select your size again. It seems it's a small flaw that it
re-sizes your paper just because you want a center feed. I recommend testing
it on a full 8.5x11 before wasting nice envelopes.
