<title>Getting Copies To Print In The Correct Order</title>

  <section id="printing-reverse">
    <title>Reverse</title>

    <p>Printers usually print the first page first, and the last page last, so the pages end up in reverse order when you pick them up. To reverse the order:</p>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>Select <guiseq><gui style="menu">File</gui> <gui style="menuitem">Print</gui></guiseq>.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>In the <gui style="tab">General</gui> tab of the Print dialogue under <gui style="group">Copies</gui>, tick <gui style="checkbox">Reverse</gui>.</p>
      </item>
    </steps>

    <p>The last page will be printed first, and so on.</p>
</section>

  <section id="printing-collate">
    <title>Collate</title>
    
    <p>If you are printing more than one copy of the document, the print outs will be grouped by page number by default. (e.g. The copies of page one come out, then the copies of page two, etc.) Collating will make each copy come out with its pages grouped together.</p>

    <p>To Collate:</p>
    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>Click <guiseq><gui style="menu">File</gui> <gui style="menuitem">Print</gui></guiseq>.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>In the <gui style="tab">General</gui> tab of the Print dialogue under <gui style="group">Copies</gui> tick <gui style="checkbox">Collate</gui>.</p>
      </item>
    </steps>
