Side by Side layout
in [Page Layout]
|
From: mazziottaa on 7 Feb 2006 10:25 I need to create a facilitator's guide that has note for the trainer on one side and the student's information on the other. So there are 2 pages side by side, but one is for the trainer and the other for the student. I want this to be one document. I have used View>Zoom and that has given me the 2 page side by side layout I want, but when I edit the left hand side, the right hand side information gets pushed. I don't want that, I want the information on the left hand side only move information on the left hand side. I can't figure out how to do this in Word. I am also open to other suggestions, as long as the result is a 2 page layout that can be edited together and each side is independent when editing.
From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 7 Feb 2006 13:29 The only satisfactory way I know of to do this is with two separate documents or two separate sections of the same document. Look at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/BookletPrinting.htm for the general principles of printing on half a page, but instead of mirroring the margins or gutter, just set your document/section to print on the right (or left) side of the page. You can then enter text continuously from one recto or verso page to another. (If you want the left and right sides to have different page numbers, you'll have to fudge this, but that's another subject.) To combine the halves, either print one document/section, then run the paper back through the printer to print the other, or, if you have the halves in two sections of a single document, you could print specific pages, entering the numbers in the order in which they should match up. -- Suzanne S.

From: jones0430 on 10 Feb 2006 11:14 Word is the wrong tool to use if you want to have mulitple text flows in the same document. Word is not a layout program. "Suzanne S.
