Mirror margins, not book fold
Is this Word for Windows?
The "Book fold" option creates a booklet, which means that pages are printed in such a way that you can fold the sheets in half and put them together in the correct page order. This will be easier to accomplish if you printer is capable of printing duplex.
Word doesn't let you enable "Book fold" and "Mirror margins" at the same time. These are mutually exclusive options in the Page Setup dialog box. You can fake mirror margins by setting the left margin equal to the right margin, of course.

It is Word for Windows. The booklet setting seems like a great way to do it, IF it would work right. That's why I decided to print the pages with the mirrored margins. But that didn't work well either. I see there are instructions below for printing half sheets, double sided, with mirrored margins. I'll give that a try. Thanks.
