Looking for an Easier Booklet



Is there an easier way to build a booklet than the kludged-up pages I've
designed?

I have two text frames per master page - Flows A & B. L/R master pages with
the A & B frame positions reversed between the two.

On the body pages, Flow A starts at the top and goes down the sheets; Flow B
starts at the bottom and goes up the sheets. Flow A was easy. For Flow B, I
disconnected the frames on the master page, then manually connected all of
them on the body pages to make it flow "uphill."

The page numbers associated with Flow A text was easy. For Flow B, I created
a Flow C text frame and, again, manually connected them on the body pages to
flow uphill. 

Then I PDF'd this mess, rotated the pages so succeeding pages are 180
degrees from each other. Duplex print and it comes out looking like I know
what I'm doing.

All this manual manipulation is fine for the little 8-page test file. But I
have to do this with a 60-page doc. If anyone can suggest a better way I
would be most appreciative.
