atw: Re: Desktop publishing in Word

Hi,

These are what I've tried

Making Booklets with Macros

There is an explanation for this at MVPS.org. Richard Keijzer and Dave 
Rado have contributed an article to the Microsoft Word MVP FAQ Site. 
Have a look and make up your own mind:

Making Booklets with the Photocopier

This is my favourite - less can go wrong. I simply print the document 
and use the in-built function of the copier to create a booklet. If your 
copier does not have this facility you will need to use the macro method.
