We are looking at using InDesign to help in preparing a 56 page classified ad newspaper. The printer/press wants us to deliver spreads which are paired properly to create the plates which will be used for printing (e.g. 56/1, 2/55, 54/3, 4/53,...,28/29)  Whenever I ask ID to print a test version, I get (1, 2/3, 4/5, ..., 56).  Is there any way to get the spread page pairings that we need to deliver to the printer - or do I need to build the printer spreads manually? 

A related, but not as critical issue, is: the final paper is folded in half, so page 1 actually consists of 2 halves which are perpendicular (basically in landscape) to the main layout.  Is there a way to define page 1 so I don't have to work on it sideways?  (What I've been doing so far is building it in a separate appropriately sized document, then selecting all objects,  rotating them 90 degrees & pasting them down.  It sure would be nice if there was an easier way to handle this. 

Thanks for the help, -- Greg
