I also typeset books for publishing. When I send documents to printers, they
request PDFs with one page per sheet because they will be performing the

Well, we'll get there eventually.... I'm just trying to get out the door here.
I am also the writer. My creation of a book with many illustrations and other
design features is greatly aided by having a running model. This I do by folding
the two-page sheets. It is very easy to assemble the model -- no cutting or
pasting. The cover likewise, on glossy paper. If I add glue to the edge the
result is very much a book. The model in hand is a great aid to designing
and the growing book is very motivating.
The one-page-per-sheet can easily be achieved, I'm sure. Word 2007 can
do anything, even crash.
Book example, recently pdf'd:

I've taken this book out of print but it sells (Ebay, Amazon etc.) for a good
price. (The original was done camera-ready pre-computer.)
Yes, yes, I know, it's not a 2 page per sheet original. Bye bye.
Now, Suzzane, get up to date: buy Word 2007 and have fun :-)
