In Page Layout go to Orientation first. Select Landscape.

Then in Page Layout, go to Size. At the bottom, you should see More Paper Sizes. Click on that. You should see Letter in the first box. (If not, change to Letter.)

In the second box, change Width to 17. In the third, change Height to 11.

There should be no other changes needed to Page Layout.

Then Save As your blank document

Set up two Columns on your new document, each being 8.5 X 11 side by side

I would then Copy/Paste your first document from Word (not PDF) with your old Page One on the right hand side column. Copy/Paste Page Four on the left column.

Depending on how you did the first one, it will either look just right or things will get fudged around a little.

Don’t worry about it too much yet.

Now try to print.

If it prints OK, then you can either fix that one up for practice or start laying out your next one.

Don’t forget to set up a gutter near the fold so text and pictures are not too close to the middle. That looks bad on your finished piece.

Let me know if we are close!

Thanks so much for staying with me on this...I will try it on Monday when I’m back in the office and report back. It sure sounds reasonable...
