Print Preview

[Guest]

Is there a way for Word's print preview, multiple pages, 1x2 to display odd
numbered pages on the right and even numbered pages on the left, just like in
a book?

In print preview, the 1x2 setting divides the screen. The left side should
be blank (it displays page 1) and the right side should display the first
page of the document (it displays page 2). Odd numbered pages should all be
on the right and even numbered pages should all be on the left.

The problem is the way Word handles the first page. Word needs to make the
left side blank and shift the first page to the right side in the multiple
pages, 1x2 selection. After that, Word should orient the pages so that the
even numbered pages are on the left and the odd numbererd pages are on the
right, side by side.

I see no way to do this. I think this is a bug in Word.

Thank you

Print Preview will do this provided you have enabled either "Different odd
and even" header/footer (Layout tab of Page Setup) or "Mirror margins"
(Margins tab).

Thank you. Mirror Margins did the trick. I also clicked on Default to save
this setting permanently.
