Little problem with Microsoft Publishing.
6 Answers
I'm using Microsoft Publishing 2003. I have edited a 12 page left edged. However I have needed to add in a 13th page. When I have done this and then print off the booklet, for some reason there is a blank 14, 15 and 16th page. Is there any way to have it so that page 13 is used and then a blank back page, being page 14 and then do away with the other two blank pages which there is no need for?

Mark, as I say, I have basically edited a previously saved document to suit myself and then tried to add in the extra page. I have never used Publisher before so I'm not too sure what you are saying about book format. However, thanks for that, I will just get on with it as it's not a big deal if it can't be sorted.
Howard, in the print preview there is no pages 14, 15 and 16 showing. They just get added in to make the booklet print properly I assume. What I mean is that they are not deletable.

Take a sheet of A4, stand it vertical (portrait) and fold it in half. Now you have four pages of duplex A5. That's how books get bound. Publisher, like every DTP package, supports this format so that you can create publications which are designed to be bound into books.
Now, take three sheets of A4, place them together, and fold them as above. That gives you 12 pages of duplex A5. If you were to look at them like a book, you'd see that the first sheet contains pages 1, 2, 11 and 12 of the printed book.
So, every time you add a new "page" to a DTP document which uses the book format, you're adding one physical sheet of paper which will become four pages of the actual book.
Is that clear now...?
