No...print 3 on an A4 sheet, cut into 3 postcard-sized pieces, and
laminate. You want a laminate-only border all round (a) to keep it
waterproof (b) because the only real adherence is
laminate-to-laminate.


Yes, that makes sense. Having cut out the 3 postcard sized pieces from the
A4 sheet, you can put them all inside an A4 laminator pouch with spaces
between them so as to have a laminated border when finally trimmed. This is
likely to be more economical than using postcard-sized laminator pouches -
even if you can get them.


But beware the sharp corners after cutting...round them off!
