Blank Business card preset missing

I'm doing an online course and our teacher has a blank business card preset. I'm on the subscription Adobe package and have all the same presets EXCEPT the business card. Has this been removed from the newer version or have I got a different set-up? I'm in UK and the only answer I've been able to find about missing presets was for non-Englishess intsallation and I don't think that was even In Design anyway. I don't want a pre-fancied up card made by someone else I just want a basic blank one. I know I can just create one anyway I suppose, but why isn't it there?

    Hi Shayde,

    You can easily add this preset by choosing "Custom" from the Page Size menu, when creating a new document or from the "Edit page size" icon at the bottom of the pages panel, if the document is already created. In either case, you'll be able to create a new preset, name it whatever you want and size it accordingly.

    Hope this helps!

      You may be missing something for real. I wonder if resetting preference would help. Sometimes your preference file gets corrupted and InD starts acting weird.

      Do one of the following:

      (Windows) Start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.

      (Mac OS) While pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.

        What's wrong will be with you/InDesign if you do this preset by your hands?

        Create documents from a wide variety of templates and presets  look into "modify preset"

        Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner

          I never said there was anything WRONG with it. That wasn't my question. I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything I should have already. Last year I was brand new to EVERYTHING and wanted to understand more. Nothing wrong in that.
