Printing problems

[Guest]

When I try to print out my document in booklet form, the actuall printed
document turns out different than it looks in the print preview. Why is
this? How can I get my document to print out exactly as it looks in the
print preview?

If you are using "Book fold," you won't ever get what you see in Print
Preview because Word arranges the pages so that they can be put together
into a booklet. So, for example, what you see on screen, if you are viewing
two pages side by side, will be pages 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and so on. But what
Word prints is this (for an eight-page booklet):

8 and 1 (front)
2 and 7 (back)

6 and 3 (front)
4 and 5 (back)

If this is not the problem, what, specifically, is?
