Booklet Formatting

Is there any way to place a large exel spreadsheet across two consecutive pages and have it print the same way? Or do I have to split the spreadsheet down the middle and save one half on a page and then the other on the corresponding page so it will print accurately. Thank!

    You can lay the content across a two-page spread, and print the individual pages, yes. It may take some adjustments and setup tweaks to get it to print the way you want (which is probably as "seamlessly" — literally — as possible).

     

    It is probably most effective to export the spreadsheet to a PDF, and lay that in place across an InDesign spread.

     

    Ask away if there are any points that are unclear; you will probably need some help to adjust page bleeds etc. to get the output you expect.

    It's always best to put two-page content on the center spread which is always printed on one side of a single sheet so you don't have any alignment problems.

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

     

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.
