saddle stitch stapling a booklet

[jaycee]

printing a half A4 booklet, side folding. When select saddle stitch it
staples in the centre but as for a top folding book not a side folding? Can't
select any other position in the options as they are greyed out.

Are the options dimmed in the print setup or your printer setup? Usually this
will be a printer option. What version Publisher are you using?

The options are dimmed in the print setup - using Publisher 2007

Does your printer have a booklet setting? When you do a print preview is the
preview correct? Have you gone to the printer's web page and looked around for
support documents or an updated driver?

As Mary pointed out, the stapling isn't a function of Publisher, it is a
printer/copier function (or the drivers for the device).

Are you using some type of digital copier to print/staple?

If so, can you manually do that type of stapling right at the machine?

If you can, then perhaps it is a driver issue, you might check with the
printer manufacturer for an update.

If not, then you are probably not going to be able to automate the process.
