I used to just draw up a mock up with a pencil on a piece of paper. Old
technology I know but it worked.
Also, when doing smaller books without the benefit of a long-handled stapler
I would staple the pages together with an ordinary office stapler onto a
hollow cardboard cylinder (the kind you get for posting or even have in the
kitchen for clingwrap etc). Then lift the booklet carefully off and close
the staples by hand. A trick I learnt from a graphic designer.
Cheers,
Jill
