CorelDraw/Printing DL leaflets

Advertisement


Question
I am using Corel Draw version 12.

I have created a DL leaflet (which I will fold into three once printed) which is across two pages. When I print it, however, and select it to print double sided, it prints one side the right way up, and the other side upside down, so you have to  flip it and it can't be folded up.
This is incredibly frustrating, and I can't see any way of rectifying this problem.

Answer
Hi Emily

I have two suggestions for you to try.

1. In your printer settings there is normally an double-sided option to flip on either the long edge or the short edge. God only knows what the mean by this, but if you try the other one it may solve your problem.

2. On page 2, select all your objects together and rotate the whole lot through 180° (with the Ctrl key pressed of course).

Enjoy your weekend!

My main area of continuous expertise with CorelDraw involves setting press advertisements and I have rarely used it to produce complex drawings. However as director of a small company I have amassed a good deal of background knowledge of computers, various printers and networks over the years. When it comes to problem-solving, I have a long history of having nobody to ask but myself and, lately, the internet!
