[wiersma7]

Hi!

I am toally baffled!

I do Bulletins for a Church that uses a bookfold page setup of four pages. I
do 2 different kinds - one with 2 columns and one with no columns. We just
installed Office 2007 on a new Dell computer with a Vista interface.

Problem:
for each bulletin - of the 4 pages one page prints over another
page.
example:
Bulletin 1 prints: Page 1, page 2, page 3, page 4 prints
on top of page 1.
Bulletin 2 prints: page 1, page 2, page 3 prints on top
of page 2, page 4.

I have tried everything I can think of - read everything I can get my hands
on, but nothing works.

Also, I used to be able to print 4 good pages with no problems. I've started
over with formatting, reformatted, tried going back to the last bulletin
that printed okay - but my total archive since May, 2006 is now doing the
same thing (this started the first of March) - can't find anything I've done
different.

Please help - I'm totally frustrated!

Hi Jan:

Sadly, the answer is "Word 2007 does not have booklet printing. They moved
the function into Publisher."

Suzanne describes a manual method here which will work with Word 2007:
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...etPrinting.htm

Daiya has a more extensive explanation here, designed for Word Macintosh,
but again, the technique qill work in Word 2007:
http://word.mvps.org/mac/bookletsfold.html

I would steer clear of the "Macro" solutions currently. Very few macros
will work properly in Word 2007. They are difficult to install and even
more trickey to get them to work. We will eventually produce a few, but we
haven't done so "yet" :-)

Hope this helps

This might not help you immediately, but there are a bunch of printers
out there who do pretty good bookfold printing on their own (you just
select that in the printer driver settings, and off it goes).

I've seen this in already a couple of years old printers from brother
and HP (you need to test this when deciding to buy your next printer, of
course).

Are you sure that's correct, John? Others have been printing "Book fold"
from Word 2007, and I believe the "Book fold" setting is still in the same
place.

I haven't used them, but the settings are still there under the "Pages"
section of the "Margins" tab of the Page Setup dialog.

Although, I really feel that they may not have implemented it very
well. There are lots of complaints about glitches here, it seems.

That second link John gave--Daiya's booklet link--will not be very
helpful for WinWord *at all*, by the way.

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

I have never thought that "Book fold" was ready for prime time, which is why
I keep pointing people to
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...etPrinting.htm.

I have used "Book fold" for short booklets, but when I have a long one and
the certainty that I will have to reprint specific pages, I go with my
klutzy method every time.

No, I'm not... I didn't find them until Doug told me where they were!!
That dialog is quite well hidden :-)

Forget I said anything...

Hi Daiya:

You think? It's one of the better descriptions of the issues involved
that's out there :-)
