Mass booklet disasters

[mrswtobe]

I am fairly handy on the computer and with the printer. Did all my own invitations which were really tricky but 50 wasted pages later and god knows how many hours later I've given up on the booklets! I cannot get to print them back to back in the correct way. I've tried all the templates, perhaps it's just my printer but I've given up and am getting them printed. Im exhausted from the whole stupid thing. Anyone else get them printed and could any missies recommend somewhere good and reasonably cheap to get them done?

Hi hun, ah and they say technology suppose to make life easier eh Im getting mine printed at €1.75 each . couldnt be dealing with ink paper all that.... not good with technology ...

[mrswtobe]

I know. Honest to God I'd be fairly handy on the computer. I think it may be my printer. It just doesn't feed into the printer properly and I am not getting a new one. Got a price of €100 for 100 booklets. Can't do better than that I think!

[cheeky monkey]

Hi,

You can get the booklets to print in booklet format if you save the word file as a PDF and then go into your print settings and select Booklet printing under Page scaling.
It will then automatically scale the pages to A5 size and print the pages in order for folding into a booklet.

all you need to then is fold the pages & staple.
It cost me 30 euro to print 100 booklets as i did it myself. and that was for the card cover & paper for pages. I took 2 hours to print and fold including a little trial and error !!
good luck
