Print a 4 letter-size page document as a booklet on tabloid?

[Doc S.]

I have a newsletter that is pre-edited as a 4-page letter sized document. I
want to print it on 11 X 17 paper as a booklet, eith 4 letter-size pages, but
I can't seem to figure out how. Any suggestions?

Well, the first thing is that you'll need to have a printer capable of
printing 11 x 17. If you don't have that, then just count on producing the
newsletters via copier or commercial printer.

If you have the necessary tabloid printer, then you can use the "Book fold"
feature in Word 2002 or above. In Word 2000 or above, you can use "2 pages
per sheet" in Page Setup (*not* "2 pages per sheet" in the Print dialog,
which reduces the pages), but you'll need to rearrange the pages so that
page 1 comes last; in other words you'll need to print pages 2 and 3 on one
sheet and 4 and 1 on another (or on the back of the first, assuming your
printer can duplex).
