different page sizes in book

2008-07-14 Thread Baruch Brodersen

Hi All, I'm sure this has been asked and answered but I'm on a short lead... I have a book that is 99% 8.5 x 11. However, there are also a few 17 x 11 (drawing foldouts) that go in to the book at the end of chapters. Right now, it appears that I have to choose one size when I ren
