Re: Printing "middle" pages from a bookfold

My experience is that printing selected booklet pages doesn't work very
well. But I'm curious as to why you're "chopping" the pages when the whole
idea of "Book fold" is to allow you to fold the pages into a booklet. If
you're going to cut them anyway, then you really don't need to be printing
in booklet order.
