How do I add pages to a Word doc w linked text boxes (a booklet)?
I have a document with linked text boxes. It's in landscape view with 2
columns so that it is folded in half to form a small booklet. Is there a Wizard or how do I add more linked pages? |

Add another page to the document, Insert a Text Box on that page and link
from the previous one to it. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

In Word, you will have to manually add a page break (for example by pressing
Ctrl+Enter), insert more text boxes, and then manually link them. Note, however, that you don't need linked text boxes to create a booklet in Word; see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...etPrinting.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Andrew@Undercover" wrote in message ...

How do I add pages to a Word doc w linked text boxes (a booklet)?
To add to what Stefan has said (a) there is a hard limit of 32 linked text
boxes in a Word document, (b) just adding a page with a text box at the end won't help if you're creating a booklet; you'd have to insert four pages, and you'd have to insert them at the correct places. For example, suppose you have an eight-page booklet and want to add a page. The current page/sheet layout is as follows: 8 and 1 2 and 7 6 and 3 4 and 5 For a 12-page booklet, you'd need to have this layout: 12 and 1 2 and 11 10 and 3 4 and 9 8 and 5 6 and 7 You can see that you would have to do a lot of wholesale rearranging just to add a page. It is much easier to use Word's built-in "book fold" feature if it is available to you; otherwise, as Stefan says, the method described at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...etPrinting.htm is more efficient. -- Suzanne S.
