Default Word2007 bug: won't place picture correctly

I have to agree with Mason that this short course in bookbinding is worth
the read. And Cheap Impostor sounds like worthwhile software, too.


Yeah. Except. It's .gz -- looks like unix. I got it and decompressed
it but the result has no extension and does nothing on my pc.
Maybe someone knows more.

It's for the Mac, and Mac OS X is built on a Unix base. That info is
buried down at the bottom right of the site homepage. I had mentioned it
before, as part of a different approach that Mason might take to avoid
dealing with Word's BookFold.

It is a nice program, from the demo I tried a while back, and has a
*really* good Help file. Sadly, it does more than most people need and
there are free alternatives out there, so I think it's not as commonly
used as it deserves to be.

The availability of programs like this means Mac users don't feel the
absence of BookFold in MacWord at all, plus once it's installed, it
works for any program that can print.

A PS: Mason, on your previous post--this fix worked to fix a different
problem--

"What the heck ! I saved it as a Word97-2003, closed and reloaded it and
it still shows two page 2's in Print Preview but prints correctly."

Did you try that on this problem?

I am preparing a book.
It has Multiple pages: two on a landscape 8 1/2 x 11 sheet.

A picture on the right side, page two, prints on the left side, page one.

Try it. Page Setup: "landscape"
Multiple pages: "2 pages per sheet"

Hit enough lines (Enter) to make the second page appear.
Insert a picture on the right hand, page two.
Print review is ok.
Print it.

It will print on the left side, page one.

I've tried everything, including wrapping the picture in
text; setting page breaks and section breaks.

If I cannot solve this, Word2007 is useless to me.

HELP !

Just to close the record: bottom line:

I returned Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 to Fry's.
With some reluctance they fully credited my credit card.

Mason C Yes, I did uninstall it.
