Printing several choosen pages on one sheet - is it possible with VBA?

Grzegorz Pawli #1 / 5	Printing several choosen pages on one sheet - is it possible with VBA? Hello, In the past I have used Papyrus word processor on an Atari TT computer (no, really! ;-)) and I liked one unique feature it had: when I had a big document, I could use an option to print it in such a way, that on one A4 sheet of paper there were two actual pages printed. What's more, they were printed in a cleverly sorted way, first and last page on the first sheet of paper, second and last-but-one on the reverse side, third and "third-one-from-the-end" ;-) on the second sheet etc. so that after printing the whole document I could put the pages together, bind them in the middle and I got something like a book. It was very useful for bigger documents. As I couldn't find such an option in Word, I wonder if it was possible to make it with VBA...? Would it? -- Grzegorz Pawlik

G'day Greggles, Jonathon West covers printer tricks nicely - start exploring from the url in my signature block below - his site is also available from the Useful Links menu entry on the MVP site as well. Essentially you are after changing the Pages per sheet setting on the File > Print dialog. Steve Hudson - Word Heretic, Sydney, Australia I can do tricky stuff with Word or words for you.
