Hello everyone,
My printer is a Kyocera Mita KM-3035 photocopier. There is no trouble with the photocopier. What i want to do in Publisher is to print two A4 sized pages on one A3 one. This is to make an A4 newsletter. I just need to know how print two A4 pages onto one A3 page. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Ethan
Re: Print A3 in Publisher
Ethan,
I just checked my Epson printer and it has a faclity in the printer set-up to print up to 4 pages on one A4 page. I'm not saying that your Kyocera has the same but I suspect that it is in the printer set-up side of things rather than in Publisher.
However, I seem to recall that Acrobat is able to print 2 pages on one.
Not much help but it does give you something to investigate further.
Re: Print A3 in Publisher
Go to File-Print-Properties. Find an option which allows you to change paper size. You may need to cycle through the tabs to find this option. Then start printing.
Re: Print A3 in Publisher
I suggest you look under file/print setup. As the printer supports A3 printing you should be able to select that size as your paper size then tile your publication 2 to a page.
Cheers
Carl
Re: Print A3 in Publisher
Hi Ethan
What you are trying to do through your printer is related to layout in Publisher.
You could use the Book layout in Publisher and choose A3 as your page size after selecting the Kyocera/Mita Copier model that you have.
In Publisher (and most publishing applications) the page size for printing is governed by the printer you select in Print setup.
By choosing book layout in Publisher you will get text flow options etc.
However, in my experience it is better to do your own layouts and be aware of the order in which you want you pages to run. e.g. pages 1 and 4 will be on one side and pages 2 and 3 will be the internal facing pages. Remember to allow a little wider margin in the centre for folding and narrower on the outer margins.
Hope that this helps. I have also found that if you are trying to fit a particular amount of text into a set space you can fiddle around with character spacing and font sizes. Also be aware that the line spacing at least 1.2 times size of font will make your text easier to read.
If you are sending to an external printer you can use publisher's Pack and Go feature, which turns your document into a set of files readbale eaven without publisher or if you create a .pdf document that would serve the same purpose and you can distribute via email to users saving on postage too.
Good luck with it.
Cheers Lyndy R
