I'm stumped trying to attain a certain effect in Microsoft Word 4.0 for the
Mac. My company prints its manuals on ordinary 8 1/2 by 11 paper. We use
a mirrored gutter on a landscape page. What we'd like to do is print each
(odd or even) page *twice* on each page as it comes out of our PostScript
printers, with an exact copy of the one page displaced to the right half.
This way, we can easily give our printer these two-up masters, they can
duplicate them double-sided, then cut them down the middle and out comes
two perfect manuals, already collated. Am I missing something? Is there
an easy way to do this two-up printing?

John,
Take a look at DynoPage by Portfolio Systems. DynoPage is a print utility
that allows one to do amazing things when printing from any application,
including Word. A Demo is available here on CIS, so you can see if it will
do exactly what you want. (Since such a capability is not built into Word.)
You can get the DynoPage demo in the Mac "A" Vendors (go macaven) in the
Portfolio Systems library.
