Address Book - duplicating cards Justin C 06-02-2008

Is there an easy way of duplicating cards in Address Book? Quite often I
speak to several people at the same company, and it'd be easier to just
duplicate an existing card and changing the name for the new contact,
rather than have to go through the whole address & phone number input
all over again - especially as I can't see the existing card while I'm
inputting the new one!

Sure. Take the business cards out of your address book, put them on the
photocopier, and push the "copy" button once. If normal paper is too
flimsy then with most copiers you can put light cardboard into the
single feed slot.
Cut the copy to size and place it in your address book.

You can change the name with a utility called a pen.

If the new card goes on a different page then you need to take the old
one out. Then you can see both at the same time.
