I have been using Adobe InDesign for years, but I still learn new little things all the time that I wish someone would have shared with me -- so now I can share it with you. I apologize to those people who do not use this design software.
Today I was working on an ad journal for a local event, placing the full page ads at the front, half-page ads next, and quarter pages at the end. Although the booklet is not quite complete, I wanted to print it out to see how it looked. There were still blank pages where ads had not been placed in yet. When I went to print it as a booklet, the paging was off, and the last page was not printing opposite the first page, etc. It was driving me crazy, because I had carefully made the document in multiples of four in order to fill all the pages.
All of a sudden a lightbulb went off in my head. I thought that maybe InDesign thinks the blank pages don't exist, so I put some text on the blank pages and voila! Fixed the booklet printing problem.
