atw: Re: Desktop publishing in Word

Sam, does it reorder the pages?

For example, if you had an eight-page double-sided booklet, pages A5 to
print landscape on A4, you would want to write the pages sequentially,
but you would want to print on the same page:

1+8 / 2+7
3+6 / 4+5

From Windows XP help  (used search term 'book bind')


When you create a booklet, it's best to start with a new, blank document
so
that you have better control over the placement of text, graphics, and
other elements. You can add a book fold to an existing document, but you
may have to reposition some elements once the book fold is in place.

1.    Start a new, blank document.
2.    On the File menu, click Page Setup, and then click the Margins
tab.
3.    In the Multiple pages list, select Book fold.

   If your document is not set to landscape orientation, Microsoft Word
   sets it to landscape.

4.    In the Inside and Outside boxes, type or select the amount of
space
you want for the inside and outside margins (margin: The blank space
outside the printing area on a page.).

   If you need even more space along the fold to accommodate binding,
type
   or select the amount of space you want in the Gutter box.

5.    In the Sheets per booklet list, select the number of pages you
want
to include in a single booklet.

   If the number of pages in the document exceeds the number of pages
you
   select for a booklet, Word prints the document as multiple booklets.

6.    Select any other options you want in the Page Setup dialog box.
7.    Add text, graphics, headers or footers (header and footer: A
header,
which can consist of text or graphics, appears at the top of every page
in
a section. A footer appears at the bottom of every page. Headers and
footers often contain page numbers, chapter titles, dates, and author
names.), and other elements to your document as usual.
