A binder for collating word, excell, pub docs then print together

S

Simon

Some years ago I used an add-on for bringing together various documents into
a binder and then printing out together as one document. Can anyone advise me
where I can find this please

Hi Simon,

The MS Office Binder was, unfortunately, discontinued by Microsoft after Office 2000. It can be installed from an older version
using a 'custom' install and choosing just that feature (it still installs a lot of Office 2000 just to use the function). The
Binder is, however, a 'use as is' app and it can have some issues from newer (than when it was written) file types and features.

There isn't a 3rd party replacement for it that has been reported here yet, although there is some talk of using XML/HTML to provide
at least the printing feature (common header/footer - page numbers) for multiple Office file types from different apps.

========
Thanks for reply Bob, Can I find this online and will it work with other
versions? >>

hi folks,

i loved binder, and miss it sorely. i did find a work around.

my main use of binder was to send docs to be signed in one file. i now just
print *.pdf's and then merge them with a utility. works well, even with the
extra step of saving everything as a pdf image.

hope that helps!

zip files are messy tho. they leave a footprint on your machine: the zip
file, the unzip folder. if i need 8 documents signed, and i zip them, or
even just email them, i always get some back unsigned.

thx!

I use Acrobat at home. I can select multiple files to convert and combine in
one step. I use PrimoPDF at work. The latest version of PrimoPDF allows you
to append a file to an existing .pdf file.
