Hello all!

I am in need of some (big) help. 😅 Here's a little background for you - I work for a library and every year we use Microsoft Publisher to create our large Summer Read Newsletter. For graphic design, we use Affinity Photo/Design, so we wanted to try out Affinity Publisher for the newsletter this year.

I do not have a graphic design degree, so I'm guessing I missed this lesson, I'm having trouble getting my pages laid out correctly in Affinity Publisher to print four pages on one 11x17 paper. In Microsoft Publisher we edit each page individually. However, when we go to print, we can choose Booklet and it will then print the correct pages on the front and back of each other.

So other than creating my pages all out of order, ie. knowing that page 1, an 11x17  page is divided into two 8.5x11 pages, page 1 & page 8 of the newsletter, and the next page is page 2 & page 11, is there a way for me to create page 1, page 2, etc. and have them print in the order I need them to?

Sorry, this is very wordy, but let me know if I can help give further info.

All help is much appreciated!
