rotate an entire page

[Christine Fournier]

I am writing some reports for my students. Those reports will go in the
central file of each students where documents are clipped at the top in a way
that it's easy to read one side of the page (the odd pages), but when you
want to read the other side (the even pages), it's upside down.

What I would like to do is to rotate the even pages of my document so that
it prints upside down so that when it becomes upside down because of the way
the files are clipped at the top, it's actually readable for the person who
consults it.

Thank you for your help.

If your printer can duplex automatically, there will be an option in the
printer Properties to flip on the short edge (tablet-style) instead of the
long edge (book-style). If you're duplexing manually, you'll have to rotate
the paper before printing the second side, as Bob suggests.

Not an option in Word I'm afraid... nor in most programs. It can be done by
some printers that offer sophisticated duplex printing features, but most
folks don't have access to such a device.

One option, however, is in the Print dialog choose to print the ODD pages
only, flip & reload the paper, then print EVEN pages only.

Thank you both for your answers.
