Default One side landscape other side portrait

I find it ridiculous that Word can handle different page orientations through
different sections but Publisher (a superior PUBLISHING program) cannot. This
has caused much grief in an office environment where our printing centre is
far too busy to feed extra pages in and out of a printer that can capably
print double sided documents.

It will be a bit awkward to do but you could create either portrait or
landscape on one side and then build the other side by rotating it 90ΒΊ.

Anyway, I am trying to do tri-fold flyer, set up landscape on one side and
portrait on the other, but changing page layout cahnges both sides.

Kim was very recently heard to utter:

Did you actually read Don't suggestion?
If you followed his suggestion, your duplexer would be able to duplex the
document automatically.

Alternatively, you could create two separate documents, convert them both to
PDF, and concatenate the PDF files in Acrobat. Then you could print to your
duplexer once again.

I realise that this is a limitation of Publisher that we could do without.
But you don't have to let it stop you from accomplishing what you want.

Thanks Ed, the Acrobat suggestion is a very viable option, except for
documents with high res images. For now will need to make it work that way,
or run a single print and duplex through the colour copier!
