Picture as Centre Spread

[Glyn Baker]

Hi All,

I am fairly new to Publisher but I cannot find anything in help about
this.

I am creating a company newsletter. It has 12 pages. I have a photo
that I want to appear across the centre pages. ie. pages 6 & 7. I have
inserted the picture and on screen it appears fine. When I print
myself a proof copy on my HP LaserJet 2100, there is a margin to the
right of page 6 and one to the left of page 7. I cannot find a way to
have no margins on these 2 pages only and I assume that it is my
printer that does not allow me to print without these margins. I am
not too worried about this as I will be using the Pack & Go Wizard to
send the file to a commercial printer.

My question is, will this also happen at a printing house?

I am using MS Publisher 2000

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Glyn Baker

Depends on what they are going to print it with.

I would be inclinded to setup a page manually of the inside centre page and
what would be the single pages on the back of the centre spread.

It really is a case of who is printing it and how they are going to print
it.
Speak to the printer.

In addition to David's advice, it wouldn't hurt to install the printer
driver of the printer they plan on using so that you can get somewhat of an
idea of the margins that you have to work with.
