Great video, just what I needed starting out. One question. For setting Left/Right gutters for multiple pages, instead of messing with the Header Settings "Different Odd & Even Pages," why not back in the Layout/Margins/Page Setup window Margins Tab, under Pages where it says Multiple pages, just set that to Mirror Margins?
Wow, I never thought about any of that. I don't use word, but I was curious how this would work in other software. In Affinity Publisher you set up a Master Page as a 2 page spread, and then set the inner and outer margins. Adobe InDesign uses the gutter value for the space between 2 columns of text, and just the inner and outer margins. Now I know. Thanks Lisa!
Great video
Finally! Someone with a clue that explained things clearly. Hallelujah
