How do I print a Word doc in 4-page signatures (impositions)? Frustrated in Seattle 15.07.2006 01:44:01 I am trying to print a 4.25"x5.5" homemade book on letter-sized paper. To print signatures, one sheet of paper contains pages 8 and 1 on the front, and 2 and 7 on the back, etc. Is there a way, using either Word or Publisher, to print in signatures?

A booklet requiring two folds is beyond the scope of Word. Publisher can do something of the sort with greeting cards, but I don't know how well it would do multiple pages of same (and the pagination wouldn't be correct). -- Suzanne S.

Setting up the page this way will result in two booklets. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Suzanne S.
