Assembling the DictionaryThe pages of this dictionary are meant to be printed front to back, assembled in order, folded down the center line, and then stapled in the middle with a long-arm stapler.
How to Assemble:
1. Click "Print on both sides of paper" and "Flip on SHORT edge" to print ONLY pages 3-36 of the document front to back.
*You must click on "Flip on short edge“ or your pages will print upside down.**The dictionary starts on page 3 of this file. Do not print pages 1 and 2 of the PDF. Page 37 of this file is the credit page. Do not print it either.
2. Stack the pages on top of each other, being sure that the pages numbers (located at the bottom center of each page) are in order. The center of the book will lie open at pages 30 and 31.
3. Fold vertically down the center line of the book for each page.
4. Staple the center with a long-arm stapler.
If you’re having trouble assembling the dictionary, the pictures in my blog post may help:
