In a previous post (Hints For Printing Wedding Programs), we gave you some hints for printing half-fold and chapel-fold wedding programs.  Warner Press also makes a third style of wedding paper, called "tea length".  These programs are a little more expensive, in part because they are printed in a slightly heavier paper with a "linen texture".  The images on these programs are pre-printed so that when folded, you have two parts for your program information, and a narrower third part (about the size of a bookmark) on which to print a poem, or thank-you message, or something such as that.  Tea length programs are still printed on normal letter size paper--the length refers to the folding style, not the paper length.

Printing your information on these programs is a little trickier than the other two types, since you have to print on both sides of the paper.  You'll need to set up two one-page templates, with the paper set to landscape.  The first page will print the inside information.  You want to set your columns at 4" and 8"--this will give you three sections of 4", 4" and 3".  You want to print your information in the two 4" programs.  The 3" section will be the back of your bookmark/poem.

Your other template will be where you print your poem or message.  Set the columns at 3" and 7".  This will give you three sections of 3", 4" and 4".  In this template, you'll compose your message or poem in the 3" section.  Leave the other two sections blank, since they'll be the outside of the program.

You will want to run a number of practice pages before you load the real programs.  You'll need to figure out how to orient the paper in your printer to correctly print each side.  Once you do, only print one or two of the real pages to make 100% sure.  Then, go for it!
