Booklet Files

A5 printable booklets, suitable for binding, can be downloaded from the links below. The files are .zip ones. You will later need to unzip them and an Acrobat Reader to view and print them. If you don't have them, the free Acrobat version can be downloaded from here and an Unzip free program from a choice here

When you've installed the Reader and unzipped the relevant file, open the file in Reader.  It will produce an image similar to this, either a double or single page view depending on how you have conformed the View facility:

Having opened the file in Reader, and loaded A5 paper in printer tray, printing is then as follows:

1. Click on File|Page Set Up. Choose A5|Portrait
3. Click on Print.
3. Select Odd Pages Only.
4. Print these odd pages
5. When finished, reinsert paper so that the other side can be printed. Make sure that you have the correct orientation.
6. Select Even Pages Only
7. Print these pages. NB I find it most easy to print in batches only, say, pages 1-20 - i.e. front and back of 19 sheets. In this way, if one sheet doesn't print properly, you haven't spoilt more than a few sheets!
8. Print front and back of cover in the same way
9. When all are printed, assemble and bind with a plastic sheet binder of appropriate thickness. These are available in most good stationery stores and cost only pence.
