This is fairly straight forward in Finale. Here’s what you need to do:
- Set the page size to “Octavo” (6.5×10.5) and landscape (which will set the dimensions to 10.5 x 6.5
- Set the page layout to landscape using File->Page Setup
- OS X Users: Print 2 pages on a single page using the print dialog. OS X is demo’ed in the video.
Windows Users: “Click Setup to open your printer’s settings (you may also need to click a Properties button). Set the Pages per sheet option to 2 pages with a portrait orientation. (Do not use the “2-up” option in the Print dialog box.)” – this info is available in the Finale Printing Guide.
- Print! The resulting size will be trimmable to fit in a flip folio. Good luck!
