Document Classes ⇒ flashcards | Paper Size Configuration

[jarevalo]

Hey there,

I am using the flashcards package and I am having a hard time in configuring the paper size (Avery c2318 - the equivalent in Europe to Avery 5388) with the parameters listed in the manual (cardpaper, cardpapermode, cardrows, cardcolumns, cardheight, cardwidth, topoffset, oddoffset and evenoffset).

The thing is that I am using an A4 format(landscape orientation) in which the cards are separated by a 4mm (0.157in) column and a 5mm (0.197in) row; something that is not foreseen in the paper configuration parameters.

Can anyone please give me a hint on how to take into account the empty column and row?

The layout of the paper I am using can be found at:

I would be grateful for any help you could provide.

Cheers

\newlength{\evenoffset}
\newlength{\oddevenshift}
%
\newlength{\cardmargin}
\newlength{\cardinnerheight}
\newlength{\cardinnerwidth}

Setup Paper

Code: Select all

\setlength{\oddevenshift}{\oddoffset}
\addtolength{\oddevenshift}{-\evenoffset}
\addtolength{\oddoffset}{-\oddevenshift}
\addtolength{\evenoffset}{\oddevenshift}
\geometry{\cardpapermode,
