Two up on a page

Default Put 2 pages with headers / footers on 1 page

To avoid wasting paper, I want to two 7" X5.5" pages on one 8.5" X 11" paper,
complete with headers and footers (two of the same page). In printer's
jargon, it's called "2 up". There is no way I can do that and include the
headers and footers of both pages. Is there a way to do that?

If you have Word 2000 or above, you can use the "2 pages per sheet" option
in Page Setup. In earlier versions you will have to fake it.

The easiest way to do this is to just format your 8.5x11 page, then tell the
printer to print it "2 up" (two pages per sheet) in the File | Print dialog.
Not all printers allow this, but spend some time in the dialog looking for
it. That should print headers/footers for both pages.

This feature was introduced in Word 2000, but it is also offered by some
printer drivers (through the printer Properties).
