Creating a section with pages inverted and reversed

[DanL]

I am trying to create a booklet that is in English for the first half reading
normally from left to right and numbering the pages the same. The second half
is in Spanish and I would like to enable the reader to flip the book over and
read normally from left to right. (From the back of the book)

Is there any way to create a section that inverts and reverses the pages so
that this booklet is contained in one publication document?

I am using Publisher 2003 on a Windows XP Pro machine.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Publisher allows you to rotate text boxes. I would do the English section
first (only because it's my native language), then starting with the *last*
page if the complete document, create the Spanish section working toward the
center of the book. When all of the text is positioned, graphics added, etc,
group everything on a page and rotate it. Next page, select, group, rotate.
Repeat as needed.

The reason I'd wait until all of the second section was done is so that I
could proofread it without flipping a printed copy around. You wouldn't have
to wait though.

JoAnn,

Thanks. This process works.

I expect that I will need to number the pages manually, rather than use a
master sheet for auto-numbering. I have not figured out how to number a
section automatically from right to left.

Thanks again.

That part could be a challenge but compared to fussing with the rest, that's
minor. ;-)

The manual method of numbering is way easier than figuring out an automatic
method. Thanks again for you help!
