Default rotate entire page of 8 X 11 to fit two on 11 X 17

Hi. I have a standard 8 X 11 word document with several pictures, tables,
text boxes etc.

My printer has advised that I can cut my printing costs in half by printing
2 on an 11 X 17 sheet. How can I rotate my entire document 90 degrees and
then put 2 copies of it on one 11 X 17 sheet?

Thanks for your help

Easy. If your printer can't print 11 x 17, install the driver for a printer
that can, and select that printer as the active printer (Print dialog).

Then go to Page Setup, choose the Paper tab, and set the paper size to 11 x
17. Then, on the Margins tab, select "2 pages per sheet" under "Multiple
pages." You'll get two 8.5 x 11 pages per 11 x 17 sheet, without any need
for any reformatting.
