Printing Newsletter in Publisher 2003

[Gary Lindgren]

I have Publisher 2003 on an XP OS and trying to print a newsletter with 2
pages per tabloid size paper. I was able to do this OK with Publisher 2000.
It seems that the 2003 version does not have a "Book fold" option for the
layout. The Print Preview looks OK and shows page 6 and 1 for the layout.
For layout I choose "Booklet". What I get is page 6 and 1 on 1/2 of the
11x17 paper. Help!

Gary are you printing to a laser printer???
If you are, you are running out of printer memory.
Have a look in the properties of the printer driver, and change the settings
from Vector to Raw or the other way around and give that a try. If that
does not work, add more printer memory.

The printer is a Deskjet 1120C. I remember that had to print directly from
the Parallel Port on the PC that has Win2000.

What paper size do you have selected in your HP printer driver?
Are you using Zoom Smart?
The Booklet option in Publisher 2002 and 2003 is identical to the Book Fold
option in previous versions.
How many pages are in your booklet?

Ed,
Thank you for the reply. I believe my problem was that I was trying to print
6 pages. I removed the center 2 pages and put them in a new file and now
it's OK. I print 4 pages on tabloid and all is fine.
Thank you,
Gary
