Default Force even Page

Hi All

I am trying to create a document that will have some "Full TrucK' exposures;
i.e., pages that are actually 11x17 with a split down the middle and
therefore have to face each other. This is analogous to a 2-page spread in
the center-fold of a newspaper.

So, the question is: is there a way to force a specific page to be either
odd or even?

Thanks much,

Default Force even Page

Note that you also have to enable "Different odd and even" or "Mirror
margins" in Page Setup. Failing to choose at least one of these options could
cause trouble if you are restarting page numbers at some point (because Word
will then look at the page number when it determines if it needs to create a
page number).

You can insert an "Even page" section break (Insert | Break). For an existing
section, you can change the "Start at" setting in File | Page Setup, Layout
tab.

Correction: create a *filler page.*

Default Force even Page

Hi,

You could try insert and odd page break, or an even page break immediately before your double-spread page.

Alternatively, if you place a field,coded as:
{IF{=MOD({PAGE},2)}= 1 {QUOTE 12}}
just before the last paragraph marker on the page preceding your double-spread, it will automatically insert a blank page at print
time if the page it's on is an odd-numbered one and will remove that extra page if the document is reformatted and the page its on
becomes an even one. Likewise if you update the field manually. To get the same effect for an even-numbered page, change the €˜1 to
€˜0.

Note: the field braces (ie '{ }') above are created in pairs via Ctrl-F9.

Cheers

Thanks much,
Have a look at 'Paginate' , a program found on download.com. It works with Word to produce newspaper type documents (booklets). It has a free trial period.
