Book Style Layout
Version Word2000
I have a resume that is 2 Letter size (8.5x11) pages. I want to convert this one 11x17 page so when I fold this in half, I can open it like a book once printed. I'm using a 2 column layout to achieve the effect I want. Page Setup dialog box: Page tab: width: 17" height: 8.5" landscape is selected apply to whole document is selected I've been playing with the margins and cannot get this to fit properly when I preview the document. I'm pretty frustrated. Any help would be much appreciated. The margins in the original doc a 0.5" Top and Bottom 1" Left and Righ 0.5" Header and Footer -- TIA AFJr |

Additional info:
What's happening is the top and bottom are getting cutoff in the preview. -- TIA AFJr "AFJr" wrote: Version Word2000 I have a resume that is 2 Letter size (8.5x11) pages.

Assuming you have a printer capable of printing 11 x 17, this should work,
but instead of using columns, try using the "2 pages per sheet" setting in Page Setup. This will allow you to use your original Letter-sized pages without modification. -- Suzanne S.
