    The trifold method only requires 2 pages. The first page is the outside of the brochure, while the second page is the inside. If you need additional pages for your brochure, consider using a two-page folded brochure. You can add multiple sheets to make a booklet.

    This can sometimes happen when there's a table on the previous page. Click somewhere on the extra page and press the backspace or delete key until you've removed all of the extra pages.

    You can print 1 page, then go to the tray of paper, flip the paper over and put it on the bottom of the stack, and then print the second page. This will print the second page on the back of the first page.
  • Question
    How do I get to the back of the brochure?
    Community Answer
    After you have two pages of complete brochure, when you go to print, just select "double-sided." You'll have to flip the page after the front side is complete and feed it back into the printer for the reverse side.

    Why does it need to be double sided?

    It doesn't need to be, that's just a useful function if you have a lot of information to cover and you don't want to make the type extremely tiny to fit in on one side.

    You don't set the margin to 0 inches; you have to go to Format and then Columns. Set that to 0 before you put anything on the document.
