losing formating when I copy and paste between .pub docs
Hello...
I am working on a newsletter that I started work on from a four-page template... It prints as four 8.5x11 pages... I need this document to print on 11 x 17 paper so i create one document of all four pages that i can then fold in half (my computer is networked to my office copier/printer that can print this size). To accomplish this I decided it would be better if I could re-create my newsletter as an 11x17, however, when I try to copy paste my original items into my new 11x17 .pub file I lose all the formatting. I am doing edit select all and then paste to do this... any thoughts on how I can retain all my formatting as i copy and paste each original page into the 11 x 17 layout? thank you! |

Have you considered a booklet setup? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "rIAm" wrote in message ... Hello...

Look at your printer settings. Mine say "flip pages up" if I do this I will get
a print the way you are describing. Some printers will say it a bit differently. Publisher will setup a booklet properly and will print correctly, but you have to setup the printer first. In your case the printer setup will be tabloid (17 x11 ). -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "rIAm" wrote in message ...
