Suzanne,
Has anyone come up with a workaround for this problem? I'm currently facing the same issue as you discussed here in 2001. I have an approximately 100-sheet (200-page) book in landscape mode. I want to bind it along the "long" edge such that the user, when flipping pages away from him, will first see page 1, then page 2 above page 3, then page 4 above page 5, etc. So what I need is gutters at the top of odd pages and at the bottom of even pages. I can't make Word 2002 accomplish this. It will mirror odd/even gutters on left/right in landscape mode, but not on top/bottom. best regards, Marty Jones Suzanne S. Barnhill wrote: The problem is not with a landscape book (Word handles that the same as an entirely portrait book) but with landscape sections in an otherwise portrait layout. And I have read that there are some interesting NEW problems with handling of the gutter in Word 2000 (or maybe this was one of the things I experimented with during the 10 minutes or so that Word 2000 was installed on my machine g). -- Suzanne S.

I believe the suggestion I've made in the past was to handle this using the
"Different odd and even" setting for headers and footers. In this way you can add extra space to your Even Page Footer and Odd Page Header. -- Suzanne S.

I'll test that workaround this weekend and see how it goes. Probably
will have to jack around a little to get the spacings right and the page numbers located the same on odd/even. Thanks! Martin Suzanne S.
