Here is my approach to make a ``visistekaartje'', as is called bussiness
card into Dutch. On one A4 10 (2 * 5) cards are printed. The cards are
separated by plusses (+) so you can easily cut the cards. I print the
cards on thicker paper. The parameters are in the beginning of the file.

The TeX-file uses a local font, our tue-logo (Technical University
Eindhoven). This logo is made with METAFONT. To see the results you can
change this font with another font or ask me the METAFONT sources of tue,
if you like.

The TeX-file uses a mixture of Dutch and English. I hope this will give no
problems. Dutch and English have the same ancestor!

A lot of fun with designing your bussiness card, Piet
