Announcement text:
gcard.sty provides a simple LaTeX2e package for producing greeting cards. It arranges four panels onto a single sheet (typically, A4 or letter) so that when the sheet is folded twice the four panels are arranged as front cover, inside left and right pages, and back cover. It uses the textpos package for placement on the sheet and the graphicx package for the necessary rotation. The four panels are set in minipages for formatting by the user.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/gcard . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=gcard (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).
