page layout for teacher guide

The numbering is a fairly trivial issue (provided you don't want a TOC), but keeping the notes synchronized with the text would be problematic. The page numbering with a TOC can be simple if you are willing to be unorthodox. Number one of the documents and include a TOC. In the other document have no numbers (or numbers like "Comments for Page {PAGE}") and blank pages to match the TOC space. Your document gets numbers that increment by one for every "text" page, i.e. for every two physical pages. But keeping the notes scynched with the text is still a killer. Bob S |

wrote: Many thanks for that. It makes perfect sense. We had a discussion about this earlier and a number of my colleagues came up with a different take on the requirement. Basically, they have suggested that we think about printing on both sides of the page. Lets assume we have the student guide open. They want to have the instructor notes on the left hand page and the course notes on the right hand page. In the students version, the instructor notes would be replaced by a lined page which would allow them take notes. I think this is a really good solutuion but i see a couple of real problems. The text flow between the pages in the guide would be a problem. In terms of pagination the instructional content would have to flow from say page 23 to page 25 for example. Page 24 in this example would be taken up with the instructor notes or the student note taking page. i dont know if this kind of text flow is possible. Similarly is it possible to ensure that the numbering would work? Take care Holly If you have a printer that can take large enough paper, you can still use Suzanne's method. Set your margins on the wide paper so that the text all ends up on the left. Put frames in the giant right margin to hold the notes. Print it, chop or fold the giant pages down the middle, and bind it. Bob S |
