Yes I would agree with that.
There was no book fold back then was there? I looked at Pub 95 and did
not see one but it could be there.
And I see how you would need a little margin if it was printed by a
printer.
I just did a quick 8 page folded booklet to try it out and the 2 page
spread seemed to run across OK althouhg it would have the staples in it

I only know I have been doing booklets this way forever, that goes way
back to Publisher 1.0. This method is useful when you are going to bind
the book and you need a margin in the center to accommodate the
printer's binding. You can crop to the margin on both sides. The gap
will be gone when the booklet is printed.

A few important questions.
What level Pub are you using?
Do you have your newsletter set up as a BOOKLET in Page Setup.
If you are using Pub 2002, 2003 or 2007.
Then you can just insert a picture on any pair of pages and enlarge
it to fill the space and ignore the margins except you cannot print
outside the printer sheet limits.
There does not seem to be any need to cut and paste as Mary
suggested.
Please explain what is wrong with what you see in preview.
I even printed it to make sure preview was telling the truth.

Mary,
It seems to work OK for me even if I span a picture over the centre
of pages 3 & 4 in an 8 page booklet.

Thank you for your suggestion, however I am still not getting the
results I
need. I did as you instructed and thought we were finally there.
When I
went to print preview, there was a gap between the pages where the
map won't
print. I have tried to remove the margins so that the pages would
flow
together, but again, have not been successful in making the two
pages look
like one large page.

Fit the map how you want it to appear on the booklet pages. Copy
the map, align
the pasted map on top of the original perfectly. Select the top
map, with the
crop tool crop left to the center. Select the bottom map, crop
right to the
center. Now refer to the print preview, it should show the map
spanning the
pages.

Thank you Mary, but maybe I am using the wrong terms. Perhaps I
am trying to
"span" other pages. In print preview, it only shows one page of
the map I
want to flow across the two center pages (like a centerfold) as
if it were
one page.

Simply insert your map and ignore the margins. If it is truly
the middle the
map
will print just fine. Refer to print preview. If you are trying
to span other
pages that is a different maneuver altogether.

In an 8-page newsletter, I need to treat the center two pages
as one to
accommodate a large picture/map. I cannot figure out how to
do this - can
anyone help? Assistance much appreciated.
