Milo: telling Word to show "Two Pages" view w/ nothing opposite pg
I'm an Office03 user finishing up a novel.
It’s frustrating that the view of “Two Pages” shows pages 1 & 2, then 3 & 4, etc. when a book is actually just page 1, then 2 & 3, then 4 & 5. So, for example, in two-pages view, all my chapters are starting on the left page. Is there a way to tell Word to show it with nothing opposite page 1 and start doing doubles after that? I can’t be the first person to wish for this but I've tried the help files and online and can’t seem to figure out how to word it to find this info. The resulting PDF does exactly what I want, but that should be the final step...not where I discover the layout errors I made due to my confusion. ;-) Thanks!

You're right. I guess that, for some reason, I assumed that the OP was
referring to Print Preview. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Oh, for goodness sake. It never even occurred to me to try it in Print

And note also that, if you turn the Magnifier off, you *can* edit in Print
Preview, though that may be more than you need. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "miloshapiro" wrote in message ...

I'm not sure what you mean by "turn the magnifier off" but i'd love to edit
in that mode rather than going back and forth as i find mistakes. Can you clarify? "Suzanne S.

By default, in Print Preview, clicking in the document changes the zoom. If
you turn off this by clicking the Magnifier button on the Print Preview toolbar, you can edit the text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "miloshapiro" wrote in message ...
