Default Flip a whole page 180 degrees

I am working in Word and have a landscape format with 2 identical columns on
2 pages (so that I can print back to back and then cut in 2 to make 2 sheets
5.5" x 8 "). I'm not able to use 2 pages per sheet option and then duplex
printing because it won't format correctly on my copy machine. I'd like to
us the copy machine rather than print to my deskjet printer and then copy
because the digital images are so much nicer. I'm making 150+ copies in a
duplex mode. In order for my text to print correctly, I need to rotate the
2nd page of text 180 degrees. I'm unable to just copy and paste it into a
text box because it is a form and I cannot paste a table or form into a text
box. Anybody have any ideas?

I would be pretty sure that with a bit of manipulation of the order of the
pages to print in the File Print dialog, you can use the 2 pages per sheet
option, but starting with a portrait oriented documnet without the columns.
For example, in the Pages control of the Page Range section of the dialog,
enter 1, 3, 4, 2. Then you will get pages 1 and 3 side by site and 4 and 2
side by side and if you were to put the two printed sheets back to back, you
would have 1 and 2 behind each other and 3 and 4 behind each other.

Hope this helps.
