Re: How to zoom a word document with book fold printing

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

This is what Book Fold does. The number of pages on the status bar reflects
the number of logical pages, not physical sheets. But it's up to you to do
the size reduction, reducing the font size, paragraph spacing, etc., as
appropriate. If you show two pages in Print Preview you will get a more or
less accurate representation of what Word will print (with the exception
that the pages shown will not actually be printed on the same ***, since
the imposition is set up to create a booklet).

If you want to create a booklet from an existing document by reducing the
pages, then you'll need to use the "2 pages per ***" option in the Print
dialog, but the imposition will be up to you. For example, for an eight-page
booklet, you would have to tell Word to print pages 8, 1, 2, 7, 6, 3, 4, 5.
