How do I create a booklet with each page being 1/4 of a reg. page
I'm trying to create a small booklet to hand out to guests to a wedding of a
friend of mine. I wanted each page of the booklet to be 1/4 of a regular 8 1/2 by 11 page. I also wanted to put some borders. I'm sure there is a very easy way to do this, I just can't seem to find it. Under page setup it only allows me to do 2 pages per sheet. I want that option to be 4 pages per sheet. |

There are several ways of doing this, but given that it's for a wedding and
it isn't going to be a long document, I would suggest either: (a) doing everything on a normal page and then set your Printer Driver to print 4 sheets to a page (as opposed to setting anything in Word.) That way all of your page formatting (like borders or whatever) can be done as per normal. Remember when doing this that once you print 4 per page, everything's going to shrink, so make sure you use adequately thick borders and big fonts. (b) If your Printer Driver does not allow this, or if this does not give you the flexibility you need, then try creating a 4 celled table with fixed column widths and heights to take up the full page of an 8.5x11" sheet (with the smallest page borders you can get) and then treat each of the four cells as if it's a page. If you want each page to have a border, then set your table border to None and nest a single-celled table in each cell and apply whatever borders you want to the nested tables.
