Which is another long story and not the point I want to make now, a point for which I have no answer. Word can do either, provided you enter the right kind of section break.
#Create booklet in word 365 full#
(There are two kinds of blank pages in Word and when you are looking at a lot of pages the eye sometimes becomes weary and fails to note this: (1) the back side of a page with printing on it, which is a half page, and (2) a full page front and back. Which worked fine, as long as the last page of a chapter ended on a left hand or even numbered page.Īt this point I needed a half blank page. I had the whole 300 page novel laid out, looking real nice with sequentially changing headers for different chapters, with the first page of each chapter being the right hand page, and different page number styles using lower case roman numerals for the introductory pages, and arabic numbers for the main text. I have spent a humungous amount of time trying to find the right answer by trying different section breaks, finally hitting upon the Odd (or Right Hand) section break solution set forth above. I have an intriguing addition to this Q & A. It was important for me to find a workaround to this 15++ year-old bug because I am working on booklets where the odd pages contain a translation, line for line, of the even ones so a real mirrored working view was a must. This section is totally clean! it is possible to number and print only the pages of that section (using "P1S3-" syntax for the range), to view in Print-layout the mirrored pages at their correct position, with the correct mirrored-margins, gutter, numbering, indents etc. With this configuration, the real document starts at section 3. The third dummy page should contain a Section Break (Next page) The second dummy page should contain just a normal Page-Break The first dummy page should contain the Section Break (Odd Page) To solve this, we need to add another section to contain all the mess, it means 2 more dummy pages:
So printing from page 3 (which is page 1 of section 2) is messy because both are printed and other problems. The hidden page 2 is exactly the same as page 3. When a first dummy page contains a section-break to odd pages, the page 2 disappears but is still there (just print the absolute pages 1-3 to see it).
