>In Word, the situation is hopeless. It depends on the version you have. Some had a bug that an update will fix. However, a good way to fake out Word with many page number printing problems is to print the pages in reverse. It kicks Word in the butt and makes it pay attention. Dian D.

Doesn't look like a solution was found back in June 2002. And the HP support people say it's an XP problem. The problem seems to be that both XP and HP skip pages when printing two-sided booklet documents. So that instead of pages 1, 3, 5, 7, etc. and then you turn over and print 8, 6, 4, 2, you get page 1, 5, 9, etc. and the same skipping on the way back, so nothing matches up properly. In Word, the situation is hopeless. But in Publisher, I can ask for just pages 1-2 and get both sides and all 4 pages, as someone earlier mentioned. So you have to cue each sheet separately. Has anyone found a work-around for this? I heard that others have started using ClickBooks for paginating book documents. Any word on how that meshes with Word, for instance?
