Book issues

Question

When I try to print a book instead of Landscape, which I put in, it will print regular. What to do? Thanks

Answer 1

Are you using the "Book fold" setting in Word? If so, the orientation automatically changes to Landscape, and the document will print two portrait pages on a landscape page—normally A4 or 8.5" x 11". If your paper size is larger or smaller, you will need to adjust accordingly (and of course your printer must be able to handle it. And the number of pages in the book must be a multiple of 4. (More at http://wordfaqs.ssbarnhill.com/2PagesPerSheet.htm#CreatingBooklet.)

Note that Word is notoriously bad about printing selected pages from a "Book fold" document. Sometimes a better approach for a document that is to be printed is to set the paper size to the actual page size (A5, for example, or 5.5" x 8.5") and then save the document as a PDF. In the PDF Print dialog, select "Booklet."

Answer 2

If you page size is set to print 9" x 6", (larger dimension first) choose Portrait orientation to print.

Pages sizes usually put the smaller dimension first, so 6" x 9" should work with Landscape to print a landscape orientation.

Answer 3

press ctrl+P (to change the settings for printing) the select the right orientation, and press print button
