Default Word2007 bug: won't place picture correctly

I don't have Word 2007, and I have heard that there are problems with
placement of wrapped graphics in that version, but that doesn't change the
fact that if you're encountering the same problems with "2 pages per sheet"
that you did with "Book fold," then you might as well at least be trying to
solve them with "Book fold" instead of using a less satisfactory approach.

That's all very true. But did you try it?
Yes, I did try "Book fold" with a somewhat more comical result.

This is Word 2007. I moved the file to my son's Mac and
he sees the same thing in his Word X.

Try it. It will take only a minute. Let me know what you see.

Thanks for helping,

I am preparing a book.
It has Multiple pages: two on a landscape 8 1/2 x 11 sheet.

A picture on the right side, page two, prints on the left side, page

one.

Try it. Page Setup: "landscape"
Multiple pages: "2 pages per sheet"

Hit enough lines (Enter) to make the second page appear.
Insert a picture on the right hand, page two.
Print review is ok.
Print it.

It will print on the left side, page one.

I've tried everything, including wrapping the picture in
text; setting page breaks and section breaks.

If I cannot solve this, Word2007 is useless to me.

HELP !
