I am also an avid user of Ventura on Compaq 386/130, but I have a couple 
of questions that maybe someone using it has gotten around.

Not being sure of the correct terminology in typesetting, (I call it signature)
or it is also called 'bibling', I am having difficulty with the article flowing
correctly. 

A scenerio might help.

Take 4 pieces of 8.5 x 11 paper, turn it in the landscape orientation, and fold
it in half. Now you have a 12 page booklet with the front cover being page 1
and the back cover being page 12. The second sheet will have page 10 on the
left side and page 3 on the right side. 

Now to my problem. I want to start an article on page 3 and have it continue
on page 10. When you build frames for the text to flow into, and start the 
article on page 3, then open another frame on page 10 (logically on the left)
to continue or complete the article, Ventura would have it backwards. The 
article will start on page 10 and finish on page 3.

Anyone have an answer to this?

What I have done to get around this is really kludgy! I run the paper through
the laserjet 2 times, and build single sided pages 3 on right with a blank page
across, and page 10 on the left with a blank page across from it, then manually
feed the same sheet through twice. (Well!!! it works ((:-} )

Any help would be appreciated!

thanks
