How to create a book like document

[Cosy]

I am creating a book in ppt. It is 8 1/2 x 11 and will be folded with 32
pages. How do I get each page to be uniform of where data starts etc.?

Use another program like Producer. PowerPoint is not designed for this kind
of project.

It's enough to make your head explode, isn't it? ;-)

One nice way to do it, if you have to do this kind of thing often, is to
make
a normal page-by-page PDF, then use a program called Quite Imposing
(http://www.quite.com/) to do the imposition.

I can't answer your question; it was a spidder from mars

I always thought PP is not a good program for creating any kind of printed
document, but our company decided to switch to PP from Word and I end up
programming and customizing it to behave like Word and to my surprise it came
up very nice and now over 800 people in 5 continents are using it! It needs
a lot of programming for TOC table, chapter, subchapter, logos, running
tables … but if you do it in a correct way it works just fine , at last for
financial documents that we are creating in our company . The only problem is
the file size which is much larger than Word files, but I think nowadays we
don’t really care much about file size !
