That helps a lot, and it mirrors what I was thinking after I sent this last
night. So, each page would need to have the math done in advance, based on
the space it would take up in the final product, and set up accordingly. It
makes sense, but as you say, would probably not be done that way. It is
easy enough to do a landscape layout, set the guides and margins, and have
at it. Thanks so much for your response. It helps a lot!!
