I've just had a friend print some cards for me on Avery stock.  They came
out wonderfully.  You can get rid of the micro-perf. roughness on the edges
easily by taking a stack of about 50 cards, holding them tightly and sanding
the edges with fine sandpaper or emery cloth.  Make sure the sandpaper is
clean.  You need only one or two strokes across the surface of the sandpaper
to get rid of the perf.'s.
