Word 2003 - Duplex Printing Modification

[MCuthill]

Hi Everyone,

A co-worker raised a question regarding duplex printing a large document. What was requested was that the document be printed Duplex, but that the beginning of each Appendices always begin on the "front" of a page.

Any advice or direction is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,


Mike

Hopefully, your printer is a duplex printer.

Two choices. Print it in sections so that appendices show up on the first page.

That is, if your doc is 70 pages long and Appendix 1 is at page 56 for 7 pages; you would print 1to 55 first, then 56 -62 etc.

Or, make sure the beginning of each Appendix is an odd page by inserting blank pages.

There are probable more options.... may be someone could come with more.

Hi Mike,

regardless of whether your document has section breaks separating each appendix from the rest of the document, you could insert a field coded as:
{IF{=MOD({PAGE},2)}= 1 {QUOTE 12}}
at the very end of each of the parts preceding an appendix. This will insert a blank page if the page the field is on is an odd page. Thus, the inserted (blank) page will be an even one and the next printed page will be an odd one.

Note: the field braces (ie '{ }') are created in pairs via Ctrl-F9.

Cheers
