Printing 4 Ancestor names instead of 3 names for the temple on 1 page

I read through the other posts, and did not find this suggestion. I REALLY would like to see the ability to print your family cards without printing the instructions each time. Since we have to print each name 4-5 times now, it's a waste of paper to only be able to print 3 per page, when 4 will easily fit if the instructions are not included. The temple prints 4 per page, so the computer software to do so exists - it just needs to be imported into Family Search.

Newbies can print the instructions; those of us who have been doing family history for 50+ years, would really like the economy of printing 4 names for each page, not 3.

Does anyone who could actually implement this change ever read these ideas -- or is it simply a community board where people voice their complaints?

We have been reassured many times that ideas do get forwarded on to the proper department even though they never get commented on by people in those departments.

The three vs four cards per page idea has been posted on this and previous boards multiple times over the past ten years. Early on there was a reply from people from FamilySearch that explained that the size of the temple cards is fixed by the temple department and that until that department changes the size of the cards for everyone, including all the temples, FamilySearch programmers can not change the size of the cards we can print at home and that while many printers are able to print four cards per page, too many models of printers throughout the world cannot print four full sized cards per page. Their programming has to account for all possible printers everywhere. So for now we are stuck with three cards per page.
