Duplex Printing a booklet in Word

[lollypopcorner]

I have a booklet of 60 pages. Each time I try to print it prints 1-1, 32-33.
If I try to print "current Page" from 1 I get totally blank paper. There is
NO section break at page 33, I cannot see anything to tell it to stop here
when viewing the format marks. I've cleaned out my temporary files, turned
the computer off and wondering where to go now. Help please, I need to get
this Directory out soon and this is most frustrating. Guess I could try
doing the page numbers manually and see what happends but that certainly
defeats using the page number feature!

MacWord doesn't have a built-in booklet feature, so you must be using
Windows.

Sorry, you’ve landed in a MacWord group (not your fault, one of the web
interfaces is *very* badly designed). You might get an answer from the
people here who use both Windows and Mac, but you should try asking your
question on the general Word newsgroups. Start here:

Will 2008 have a booklet making possibility in Mac?

No mac Word doesn't have Booklet. But depending upon your Printer if you
have a Printer that will print both sides, example my HP DeskJet 990cse
can print automatic two sided printing It has wen you open the print
menu setting for two sided Printing. one of the setting booklet and the
other notebook style in OSX.4.11 show picture of a Book open with the
binder rings in the middle vertically between the two pages. The other
show one page with the binder rings at the top.

So it depends upon the Printer. If your printer does one sided do eve
or odd pages first put the pages up turn 180 degrees face up then do the
other set of pages. That's what I had to do with my old DJ 650c.

Word 2008 does not have a specific Booklet feature, nor is there any reason
to suspect that it will be added to that version - a *feature* rarely
arrives by way of updates to released versions of any software. That doesn't
mean that "booklet-type" documents can't be produced - only that it's a bit
more work to do so. There are a number of utilities available to impose
booklet printing of Word documents, such as Cocoa Booklet & Cheap Impostor.
Try this site for them as well as others:

It is possible to make a booklet with ANY version of Word.

But Word 2008 will not have an "automatic" way of making a booklet such as
PC Word has.
