I want to create an A5 booklet on Publisher - anything up to 40 pages.  I
cannot find a template for this - they all seem to be 3/4 panel.  I have
Publisher 2003 - am I missing something?

Thanks

OK, I think I have worked out how to change this.  However, it's not
achieving what I want.

I am trying to create an A5 booklet - effectively an A4 page folded in half.
This would end up having around 40 pages.  All sides will be printed on,
including back page and it will be stapled down the centre.

Is there any easy way to achieve this?

Yes - a brain.  There are 50 A5 booklet templates. Did you look through every
category? No, you did not. You decided to come here and whine. Look first and
then - and only then - when you cannot find what you're looking - do you
post. You've not even looked!

As it happens, I DID look - several times - but it is not obvious to me
anyway.  It involved changing the printer settings rather than the software.

Why don't you just ignore posts that annoy you - rather than being so rude?

Oh and I AM still trying to find an answer to my follow up query - if anyone
out there can help?

I guess it could be that Publisher just isn't that clever and I will simply
have to work out where the pages go and print them individually on
double-sided?  Unless the software will work this out for you?

Many thanks

Chris

File > Page Setup > Booklet (version-dependent) will do this automagically
The templates are under newsletter and catalogue templates, I believe.

Yes, I looked there thanks Ed - but it doesn't resolve my problem of wanting
an A5 (but A4 folded) booklet.  So it would be printed on A4 which will end
up being folded in half to make two A5 pages.  I want it to be able to work
out what page ends up where - when I print it.  Hope that makes sense!

Many thanks

Ed - I have figured it out.  The booklet option allows me to do exactly what
I was explaining.

Many thanks

Yes, which is why I suggested it :-)
Glad to hear you sorted it out.
