Question
I am creating a 34 page annual report that will in the end be staple together - so i have to convert the pages to 17x11 inch that will later be folded to 8.5x11. The only problem I can't seem to figure out is how to add automatic page numbers to both sides of my 17x11 page. Any help? thanks!!

Answer
Hi Sarah,

Set up your document as 8.5 by 11 with facing pages checked. This will auto number each page instead of each 11 by 17 spread.

When you go to output it, print spreads to output the 11 by 17 signatures.

Hope this helps,
