Printing as Book

On earlier versions of Publisher I could print a multipaged document as a
book and it would automatically print the pages in the correct order for
binding. I cannot find how to do this in Publisher 2007. Can anyone
advise please.

It is the same in 2007. In page setup the easiest
setup is Advanced on the right. Select booklet. Do you
have a duplex unit? If not go through the printing
wizard found at the Advanced Printing Options.

Hello Mary
Thank you for replying to my question but I am afraid that I am still
confused! I am not trying to print double sided, what I do is publish the
local parish magazine and I print off a master copy which is then
photocopied. Consequently I want these master sheets to be printed as they
appear when I use the print preview icon in the top menu (ie with a 28 page
booklet - Page 2 and Page 27 will be on the same A4 sheet with page 2 on the
left and page 27 on the right). However, when I go into Print menu, even
with 'booklet' selected, if I request Page 2, I only get page 2 printed and
the rest of the sheet is blank. I therefore have to request both page 2 and
page 27 at the same time, but to make it more complicated I have to actually
request page '27,2' or otherwise they print the wrong way round! I have
looked at the printing wizard in Advanced Printing Options but cannot see
anything that is applicable to this query?
Any help would be appreciated as it could save me hours!! MargaretB

This type print setup has been a bane to me. This is the one change 2007 could
have done without.

This is the sequence:
1,26,5,22,9,18,13,16,11,20,7,24,3,28
2,25,6,21,10,17,14,15,12,19,8,23,4,27

I printed this with the PDF converter that comes with Office, just to be sure it
was correct. No wasted paper! Even now I'm not entirely comfortable with this.
Let me know how it goes with you. You can have six pages visible in print
preview.

Hi Mary,

MargaretB is my sister and has been in touch to say that for some reason the
Publisher newsgroup is not updating on her computer, so I sent her a copy of
your last response. She has asked me to post the following on her behalf.
I shall continue to monitor the group for her.

"Hello Mary
Many thanks for your response. I am afraid that you have confirmed what I
feared - that the easy printing capability has been left off the 2007
version. Thank you for the sequence, I had not thought about using .pdf so
that may be useful.
Kind regards MargaretB"
