11x14 Booklets: How to set up?

[Brad Lawryk]

I need to create a document that prints on 11x14 paper in booklet form so that each page is 7x11. I can't seem to get the document set up right. 

I am used to Adobe InDesign and Affinity seems much harder to set up. Do I set up my pages as 7x11? How do I export it so it prints out properly and in order?

Sorry for the newbie questions. And thank you in advance.

Absolutely, if you create your page size at 7" x 11" with facing pages then your full spread size will match your print size of 11" x 14".

When using File > Print you should see either 'Layout' or 'Document Layout' (Windows/Mac options accordingly) - within this category you should see a Model option which can be set to Booklet.

I hope this helps!

Thanks Dan!

It was indeed the 'Booklet' option that I needed. All is good now.

I am enjoying my transition from Adobe to Affinity so far.

Thanks again!
