Default Printing 3-Fold Brochures on Duplexed Letter Size

One more tip: when you duplex the brochure, remember to change the printer
Properties setting to flip on the short edge rather than long.

You're going the wrong way about it. The usual way to create such a

is to set up three columns per page. Most of the brochure templates you
can
download fromhttp://office.microsoft.com/templates/default.aspx?will use
text boxes, but I find those much harder to work with. For some more tips

Hi All,


I'm trying to print a 3-fold brochure.. Can anyone tell me what
settings should be set to make this work?


The paper is letter-size, landscaped, and duplexed so that 3 pages are
on the front and 3 pages are on the back.


I've set the paper size to 3.67" wide and 11" high, but when printing,
I'm given 2, 4, 16, etc. pages per sheet, but not 3 pages per sheet.


Any help will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,


Michele


Hi Suzanne,

I was hoping in my dreams that you would respond to my request. Your
tips are always perfect and I am sure this one you suggested will work
like a charm as well. I've printed it and will follow the
instructions to the letter and let you know if I have any problems
with it.

I remember how happy I was with a tip you had five years ago on letter
head templates with a different second page header and footer. I had
been trying to accomplish the feat for 15 years and your tip finally
made it a reality.

Thank you so much for all your help throughout the years. You're a
genius!
