Adobe InDesign/Document setup for staggered inserts

Question
I am designing a promotional folder in InDesign CS3 that needs to have staggered inserts stacked in the pocket. The largest insert will be cut to 8.5" x 11". The smallest will be 8.5" x 6". From there they will be stacked in .5" increments. Is there a way I can do this in one document, or will each page need to be in a seperate InDesign file?

Answer
You can do this in one document

make your doc size to 8.5 by 11
set your margins on each page as to where the folder will stop (so on the next page you want to set a margin at 6 and so on).

when you go to print, you need to let the printer now that white parts need to be cut off.
