Replacing Typewriter "New Matter Index Set" with an A1 Version?

Dear Michael,

We've been using a "New Matter Index Set" special card (Safeguard Form No. NMS534.. about 5" x 6") that creates a triplicate of specific client information. One copy gets taped into the client file (white copy), another gets put in a "tickle" box for each individual secretary (green copy), and the third copy goes into a main box that is updated when the case is closed/Life-Time Medical/etc (thicker harder yellow file card).

The Card is filled out using a typewriter. However, our office is moving away from using typewriters and would like to create a printed version of the same document.

How would we possibly set this up in A1?

I can see a couple of possible options with A1:
1. the needed documentation pulled automatically from the new client card and printed out x3 on a single sheet (or multiple sheets) of 8 x 11 paper (we could probably tape/glue the information to a harder sheet for our main box 3rd copy.
2. Plus... The Safeguard printing company has let us know that they can create a custom paper setup. They just need to know how it would print properly and the information required.

Would it be best to mail you a copy of one of these New Matter Index Set cards we currently use and figure out how to setup a test document in A1?

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks again! I really appreciate your input and assistance.

Michael - it seems to me the easiest way would be to either print directly on the cards or perhaps purchase perforated cards or the other option would be to print on labels and stick the labels on the cards rather than using glue or tape. Labels of any size and format may easily be used via Word or Corel Word Perfect and all information may be merged onto a label or labels to be printed.
