Here are the steps I took to produce a CD-sized booklet in Word 2003
and print it to an InkJet printer that doesn't have auto-duplexing
ability.
1. Page Setup
A. In the "Paper" tab:
i. set Width = 11"
ii. set Height = 4.75"
B. In the "Margins" tab:
i. choose Landscape orientation
ii. select "Book fold" in the "Multiple Pages" drop-down box
iii. set Top Margin = .1"
iv. set Bottom Margin = .1"
v. set Inside Margin = .75"
vi. set Outside Margin = .16"
vii. set Gutter = 0"
2. Document
A. Make sure the number of pages in your document is a multiple of
4
3. Printing
A. Select "Manual duplex"
B. After the first set of pages is printed the printer will pause
C. Reverse their ORDER (but not their orientation)
D. Put the pages back into the input tray and continue printing
This is the set of operations I took with my HP InkJet printer. Your
mileage may vary regarding the need to reverse order and/or
orientation. On my printer, the pages are printed in reverse order,
but are stacked up, so the top page (although the last one printed) is
the first page you read. Because of that, I need to reverse the order
of the pages once they're printed, but I do NOT flip them over, because
the top side of the page is not the side that gets printed on.
I strongly advise you do a quick test run of an 8-page booklet with
minimal text to make sure you know how your printer is calibrated.
