Description padmavyuha 2003-01-18 20:08:05 UTC 
It is really unclear from the Help how exactly to use the 'brochure' function to
produce a fold-up booklet. Since there's no print preview as yet, I don't want
to waste paper experimenting, so I thought I'd ask for clarification first.
Say you start with e.g. a set of A4 landscape pages laid out in two columns,
what do you have to do (apart from ticking the 'brochure' option in Print) in
order to end up with the pages laid out as A5 on folded A4 landscape paper?
I'm used to using the booklet function in WordPerfect, where you use Page
Divide, and then the print system knows to reorder the pages to get them in the
right place for a folding booklet. Is this the same, and if yes, how do I set up
the pages?
Thanks

I believe you should ask this on the user mailing list for quicker
clarification.  I can then  post a FAQ item or something to the site.

HI->UFI: I'm not agree with the current description from cws helpcontentbeta.
There is a tyoing error on last row from the first paragraph: "objects on you
document" should be "objects on your document" and Point-Number 5 should not end
with OK.

And I did a typing error as well on my comment before ;)
Comment 11 frank.thomas.peters 2004-11-16 11:42:01 UTC
