[Solved] Wordperfect subdivide page booklet print

Post by dacpastor »

I am a longtime WP user wanting to go to OO. However WP has a page layout feature that allows to click on subdivide page, change to landscape, then a "print as booklet" feature in print dialogue that then allows a duplex printer to automatically collate and print a booklet. How can you do this in open office?

Look under File > Print > Options > Brochure. That will print the pages "two-up" and re-arrange them to print in the right order for a folded booklet. Duplexing is set under Printer > Properties (or maybe Settings?).

You might want to have a look at the Writer Guide (see the links in my signature):
Chapter 7 (Working with Styles), section "Working with page styles", subsection "Setting up a book chapter sequence of pages."
Chapter 5 (Printing, Faxing, Exporting and E-Mailing) section "Printing a brochure".
Cheers!
