Chapbook Template for MS Word 2003
It would be extremely helpful if you could develop a template for creating a
chapbook. I have tried several combinations of book fold, two-sided printing, etc. and still find it impossible to create a chapbook with the page numbers compiled correctly. A chapbook is basically a book fold, printed on front and back of a standard legal size page in landscape format that is folded in the center. The problem is always the page numbering! ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Chapbook Template for MS Word 2003
You should be able to do this (in Word 2002 or 2003) by choosing legal as
your paper size and using "Book fold." Page numbering (that is, what number is printed on the page) is another issue, but Word will order the pages correctly (using absolute page numbers) for a folded booklet. "Book fold" does have some printing issues when you try to print specific pages, and a few other bugs (such as that "Mirror margins" are reversed), but it does work correctly as far as it goes. Note that Word displays the pages of a booklet in 1-n sequence, but it will print them in the order required for the folded booklet. If you are dissatisfied with the "Book fold" feature, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...etPrinting.htm for other options. -- Suzanne S.
