A quick peek inside! This was the only tricky part about laying out the book. Since the 8-page main story was originally supposed to stand alone, I put this double page spread in the middle, so that it would print without any alignment problems. Once I added the 4-page backup feature, it became necessary to print these two halves on different pages, and therefore I had to take care to align and space them to allow for the gutter. I think it came out pretty good, and this way you also avoid having a big ‘ole staple in the middle of the villains head, which I always recommend.
