Can't get it to print different multiple pages

M

Markis Gardner

I am trying to write a 150+ page book using Microsoft
Publisher. It is really neat - I am enjoying myself.
However I can't get the print options to work correctly.
My book settings are 5.5 X 8.5 and I am showing 2 pages
at a time like a regular book - that is all nice -
however when I go to print a few pages - it doesn't print
two seperate pages on each 8 1/2 X 11. It prints the
same page twice.
ie if I wanted to print pages 50-53 (I expected 2 pages)
the first page would have pages 50 and 51 on it and the
second page I would have 52 and 53 on it. But I am
getting page 50 twice on the first page, page 51 twice on
the second page, page 52 twice on the third page and page
53 twice on the fourth page.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Markis

You are awfully talented to manage to achieve this considering it has never
been done before..

Firstly you need to realise, Bookfold/Booklet fold is always going to print
the opposite page in the imposed file.
Because you have it set-up as Bookfold/Booklet it will never print two
separate pages 21.59 x 27.94cm.
Instead of trying to print by page number, use the print option Current
Page. This is still going to give you the opposite imposed page every time
you print. That is how it works in Bookfold/Booklet.

Make sure you remember the number of pages you have has to be divisible by
four.
