Re: PLEASE HELP WITH MARGINS--Daiya's "Booklets in MacWord" page with imposition software

Actually, my first version was on an 8.5 x 11 page (before I saw your
suggestion of 5.5) and I'm not seeing any difference in the margins.
It looks almost identical.

Hi Michelle,

It's entirely possible that you are doing nothing wrong, but that Cocoa
Booklet has changed since I wrote that article on a few versions back
(maybe 1.5 years ago?)

If you are in a hurry, just run CocoaBooklet on a regular 8.5x11 page,
and let it shrink the text and get slightly big margins. MAKE A COPY and
change the margins on that.

If you have time, I should have a chance to update my CocoaBooklet,
probably later today, play around with it, and see what can be done. Or
someone else may have a key suggestion in the meantime.

I'm trying to help a friend make a booklet in Microsoft Office 2004. I've
been following Daiya's help page
http://daiya.mvps.org/booklets.htm#BookletPrograms
and am using the CocoaBooklet freeware (version 2.0.4). I followed her
advice and used a custom paper size (5.5 x 8.5) so that it wouldn't be
shrunk by CocoaBooklet when doing the imposition. This is supposed to help
reduce the large top and bottom margins created because of the proportion
difference.

I am still getting huge top and bottom margins and even quite large left,
right, and middle (in the fold) margins. I have even set my CocoaBooklet
margins to 0 and my Word margins to .35 and I'm still getting the huge
margins. It IS shrinking the font and text.

Any idea what I could be doing wrong? Please help me, I've tried EVERYTHING
that I can think of.- Hide quoted text -
