I make my Christmas card in Illustrator (CS2) and it's laid out as an 11x17 document. However, when I print it, I print two 8.5 x 11 documents (front and back). I'm trying to do that now and when I changed the document setup from Tabloid to Letter, it puts the active page right in the middle of the 11x17 document. I have put my artboard on the left-hand page, but when I print it, it just prints the left side of that center tile. (Clear as mud yet?) How do I move that tile? I thought just putting the artboard around what I wanted to print was enough, but it's not doing what I thought it should.

Kinda lost but... You can move the tiles by clicking and holding the hand tool and grab the page tool below it. With the page tool you can click and drag to position the bottom left corner of the page tile. :)

I tried that and the left side is showing up blank. I'll give it another try and see what happens. Thanks for the info!
