Linda,
I will check out Publisher. That would be nice and it sounds a whole
lot easier.
Are you quite sure about Word's ability to do what I want it to do in
this case? I might be forced to work with Word. Our software library
has legs and we have lost more than one disk....geez, I hope we have
that disk.
Thanks a bunch.
Chuck

Subject: [mso] Word 11X17 Brochure Page Layout Question
Hello All,
I have a brochure document that was originally laid out for 8-1/2 X
11. We recently bought a printer with 11"X17" capabilities and I am
trying to convert the document to that paper size. It is a 6 sided
brochure (including front and back covers). Due to the number of
pages, what I picture this to be is one (1) double sided 11X17 sheet
(4 sides) and 1 double sided 8-1/2X11 sheet (2 more sides). Has
anyone had any experience with this type of document layout? Is there
special way to format the text (for pagination reasons) or special
page set up? How do I separate the two middle pages that will print
on 8-1/2X 11? I have spent hours on this so far and I keep digging
holes for myself.
I am using Word 2000.
Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Chuck
