That's not quite what I was looking for (perhaps it doesn't exist). The
brocure printing option along with the double-sided option prints four
1/2 sheet pages per side, 2 half pages each front and back. The
numbering goes essentially 4,1 (on the front) and 2,3 (on the reverse).
The printed pages can be folded in half, stacked (folded), and then the
"spine" stapled or somehow bound together.
What I was hoping to find is some way short of physically manipulating
the half pages so that it prints two half pages per side, front and
back, but prints the sequence in such a way that when the pages are
stacked together unfolded, then stapled down the middle and the entire
stack folded down the center as a single unit, the pages will appear in
the correct sequence!
Perhaps the only way to do this is to first figure out the total number
of pages/sheets, and then create a dummy brochure with the same number
of pages/sheets, then rearrange the page sequence. Next, manipulate the
pages into the proper sequence in the software, then print using the
double-sided brochure option. That would involve a heck of a lot of
cutting and pasting, which I'd prefer to avoid since our paid ads are
placed along with text, and adjusted to make best use of each page.
Bob:
I have done this successfully. I haven't followed the entire thread, but
here is how I do it:
1. Pick paper size that will be printed on. For my example, I'll use
legal, landscape and the staple will be in the middle. Each 'page' will
be half legal with width: 7", height 8.5"
2. Create a page with those dimensions: 7 x 8.5.
3. Add all your info.
4. Print and select brochure printing, and change the page size on the
printer options to legal landscape (your dialog will depend on your
printer driver options).
5. Print and for an 8 page document, you'll have 1 with 8, 2 with 7, 3
with 6 and 4 with 5, two per legal piece of paper.
I hope that works.
