Thanks, JoAnn. I have tried book creation in Word and it was so much work. I
do hope to find the right fit for me. Thanks again, sincerely.

If you've ever tried anything similar in Word, you're going to be pleasantly
surprised how much easier that task is in Publisher.

Thank you, JoAnn. This is a big help. I don't want to make an uninformed
decision on my purchase. I appreciate it.

(I'm currently working on an ~80 page handbook, as well as a 12 page
booklet. Easy-peasy in Publisher.)

news Thank you, Rob. Yes, I relaize I could get any number of newer
versions, I
just have a chance to buy 2000 relatively inexpensively and already
familiar
with the Office suite, assuming it would be similar in layout. I will
probably only use it very infrequently, so I wanted an inexpensive way
out.
When researching the different versions I saw book creation as a
feature
in
2003 on up, but couldn't find it for 2000. Thank you so much for your
help.

What does "(Crash)" mean? Thanks again.

with

will fall out) all booklet page amounts must be divisable by 4... 16
pages
good, 17 pages bad.

When you see how much more creative you can be with Publisher, you'll be
begging to do newsletters, etc.

Glad to help. Post back when you run into problems. Publisher 2000 creates
bloated files, than said, it is still easy to do booklets with the program.

Default Can I create a book (booklet) in Publisher 2000?

Okay, Mary, I hope you're still around. Don't offer unless you mean it. I
run into this problem: I used the booklet option in Publisher and copied and
pasted a word document in it. I am doing a cover page separately,so I want
the first page number (on the left) to be page 2, and page 3 begins the first
chapter. When I start a new chapter, I want it to be on the right side of
the book, and, for example, if chapter 2 ends on page 7, I want page 8 to be
blank and page 9 to begin chapter 3. I can't figure out how to get a blankp
age inserted. I've tried everything I know. It doesn't work like Word
(Ctrl+Enter), and striking the enter key doesn't put blank lines in either.
What do I need to do? Can you help me?

Thank you sincerely for your help.

If you were using a newer version of Publisher you could insert sections. In
Publisher 2000 all the things you want to do is manual. You will have to
manually insert page numbers.

Publisher will insert page numbers but not in sections. Go to the background
(ctrl+m), create a text box, insert page numbers. You can cover the page numbers
you don't want printed with a white, lineless box.

To easily insert a page, (ctrl+shift+n), view, turn off two page spread.
Publisher will want to insert 4 pages or how many pages to equal 4, you can
insert one.

Default Can I create a book (booklet) in Publisher 2000?

Well, I just lost my previous post to you. But will try again.

I'm actually using 2003, and I see there are sections on here but don't know
how to use it. Can you recommend a tutorial? I'm a whiz at Word (in fact I
teach it at the community college), but this is a little more complicated.

Thanks to you I was able to insert a page. But now I'm trying to figure out
page numbering. I want page 0 to be on the left and page 1 to be on the
right, like any normal book. And I noticed when I imported my writing from
Word, if it ended with an odd page number in Word, it didn't import that
page into Publisher.

Mary, I can get any version of Publisher if you think another might be more
user friendly for me. This is a trial version (2003). I have Office 2000,
which I like, so I don't need the entire suite.

Any help you can give, or any direction you can point me would be greatly
appreciated.

Publisher 2003 is superior to 2000. You have features such as the sections and
catalogue merge that are not part of 2000.
There are help articles that are far more detailed than help I can give you
here.

Default Can I create a book (booklet) in Publisher 2000?

Mary, forgive me. When I was ready to print it said I needed printer
capabilities for 11x17 paper. I just want to print an 8-1/2 x 11 landscaped,
two pages per sheet, like you do so easily in Word. (But of course, the pages
wouldn't be in order for booklet presentation in Word.) I just am so
frustrated. I don't know where to find these answers. I am looking for an
online tutorial. Thank you.

Mary, thank you so very much. I will be researching it, and hopefully, able
to get it figured out.

Sincerest appreciation,

Linda

Publisher 2003 is superior to 2000. You have features such as the sections
and
catalogue merge that are not part of 2000.
There are help articles that are far more detailed than help I can give you
here.

Well, I just lost my previous post to you. But will try again.

I'm actually using 2003, and I see there are sections on here but don't
know
how to use it. Can you recommend a tutorial? I'm a whiz at Word (in fact I
teach it at the community college), but this is a little more complicated.

Thanks to you I was able to insert a page. But now I'm trying to figure
out
page numbering. I want page 0 to be on the left and page 1 to be on the
right, like any normal book. And I noticed when I imported my writing from
Word, if it ended with an odd page number in Word, it didn't import that
page into Publisher.

Mary, I can get any version of Publisher if you think another might be more
user friendly for me. This is a trial version (2003). I have Office 2000,
which I like, so I don't need the entire suite.

Any help you can give, or any direction you can point me would be greatly
appreciated.

If you were using a newer version of Publisher you could insert sections.
In
Publisher 2000 all the things you want to do is manual. You will have to
manually insert page numbers.

Publisher will insert page numbers but not in sections. Go to the
background
(ctrl+m), create a text box, insert page numbers. You can cover the page
numbers
you don't want printed with a white, lineless box.

To easily insert a page, (ctrl+shift+n), view, turn off two page spread.
Publisher will want to insert 4 pages or how many pages to equal 4, you
can
insert one.

Okay, Mary, I hope you're still around. Don't offer unless you mean it.
I
run into this problem: I used the booklet option in Publisher and
copied
and
pasted a word document in it. I am doing a cover page separately,so I
want
the first page number (on the left) to be page 2, and page 3 begins the
first
chapter. When I start a new chapter, I want it to be on the right side
of
the book, and, for example, if chapter 2 ends on page 7, I want page 8
to
be
blank and page 9 to begin chapter 3. I can't figure out how to get a
blankp
age inserted. I've tried everything I know. It doesn't work like Word
(Ctrl+Enter), and striking the enter key doesn't put blank lines in
either.
What do I need to do? Can you help me?

Thank you sincerely for your help.

Linda

Glad to help. Post back when you run into problems. Publisher 2000
creates
bloated files, than said, it is still easy to do booklets with the
program.
