publisher 2007 beta

can I print a page on multiple sheets? publisher 2003 supports this.

What have you tried? I don't really know what you are asking. Do you mean a
multiple page publication or a booklet? Doesn't really matter 2007 will print
multiple sheets.

in publisher 2002 I can print a page--say 22 x 17--on multiple 8.5x11 sheets.
publisher 2007 doesn't let me do this. 2007 allows me to print multiple
pages on a sheet, but I see no way that I can print multiple sheets per page.

This is slightly counter-intuitive, I'll file a bug report on it.

The way to do it is set the Page Setup to 22 x 17", One page per sheet;
then go to Print Setup and set the paper size to 8.5 x 11". The setup in
Print Setup will then change to Tiled.

If you want tiled PDF output, another couple of steps are necessary.

The print setup in 2007 is not fun. Forget about custom sizes. Whatever happen
to simplicity?

Good grief, that was far harder than it should have been.

The easiest solution is to export a PDF - there is a simple control
there to allow a custom PDF paper size.

Otherwise, things get rather hairy. I'm going to bug this.
