how do i print two poems side by side in landscape view?
i am trying to print several poems out for a mailing and thought it would
save paper if i could print two up in landscape layout and then cut the paper in half after i print... this should be simple to copy and past the poem at 5.5 inches, but i changed the margins so the poem would layout correctly and the whole right side is blank. thanks! |

If you have Word 2000 or above, the easiest way to do this is to select "2
pages per sheet" in the Page Layout dialog (in Word 2002 and 2003, it's under "Multiple pages" on the Margins tab). This creates two logical portrait pages on a physical landscape sheet. You can either type the poems continuously, two different ones on each sheet, or you can copy paste a single one twice, or you can print each "page" twice by entering 1,1,2,2, etc. in the "Pages" box in the Print dialog. If you have Word 97 or earlier, you'll have to accomplish the same thing manually by dividing a landscape page into two columns. Make the space between columns equal to the sum of your left and right margins. There's really no need to cut the pages if you type the poems continuously (so that you have two different ones on each sheet), and if you have Word 2002 or above, you could even create a booklet of them by using "Book fold" instead of "2 pages per sheet." -- Suzanne S.
