Which leads to the very obvious question of what the heck is the difference between short-edge and long-edge binding? Microsoft describes it thusly: Long-edge binding has pages flipped on the long end, while short-edge binding flips on the short end. Remember when I said that Word has a pretty sophisticated printer model? Here’s where you see that, actually, because instead of a simple 2-sided printout, you can specify different two-sided modes, reverse page orientation or even flip horizontally: On this settings window you finally see Two-Sided, but surprisingly, it’s a menu of options rather than a simle checkbox like it is in Pages: To find it you have to go to the Layout option: Word simply GREYS OUT the Margin option, along with Orientation. edittable as it is, but the Page Setup options such as Margins are.

Thing of it is, if you were using Apple Pages (which you could do, of course, by opening up a Word doc file), that 2-sided option is very much front and center: I know, because I recently was hit by the same confusion, digging and digging without being able to find the specific setting. Turns out that there is indeed an option for two sided printing within Word for Mac, but it’s in an odd place.
