how do I print in book format?
First of all, I am using Word 2007! There does not seem to be a lot of
information out there for this newest version. I'm trying to format and print a 5.5"w x 8.5"h booklet of names and addresses. I think I actually have two problems with it. I have a merge document set up to pull records from a directory database with approximately 200 names with address entries. My first problem is that when it pulls the records from the directory database, it pulls in every other record instead of every record! The records that do get pulled in look perfect on the final document. My second problem is that I have it set up to print landscape in booklet format on letter-sized paper with two pages per letter-sized paper, but I can’t seem to get it to print correctly. It prints in a very weird order and no amount of creative folding can get it in the correct order. |

how do I print in book format?
"Book fold" has always been a bit wonky, ever since it was introduced in
Word 2002. If you can't get it to work for you, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...etPrinting.htm for other options. As for skipping records, note that the "Directory" mail merge type does not require a «Next Record» field, just your merge fields followed by an empty paragraph. -- Suzanne S.
