Printing in booklet format

[Ronn]

I have formatted a 33 page booklet. When I view it the
pages are 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches, two to page on landscape.
But when I print it the pages print out as they would if
being sent to a commercial printer. I want them to print
out as they are formatted on the screne. But try as I can
I can't find the secret to turning off the commercial
printing command. Is there any way to do this?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Well, to begin with, there's no such thing as a 33-page booklet. It must
have either 32 or 36 pages. And if you didn't want a booklet, why did you
choose that option? The whole idea of creating a booklet is to be able to
print out the pages so that they can be folded into a booklet, which they
can't if they're in numerical order.

Suzanne this is a function the MS should have fixed a loooooooooooooooong
time ago.
Why he chose that option is because he wanted a Booklet.
The problem is you cannot easily print a Bookfold and again, that is an
issue many other far more basic programs can do and Publisher cannot.
Publisher is supposed to be a publishing program, fit to be able to do what
it purports to, however, in some areas it does not and does not get fixed.
Double sided printing should have been in Publisher many versions ago.
