<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hello Lise; <br>
There are two (IMO) better solutions than two full books.<br>
<br>
One is to use a "universal" page (11.5 x 7.5 in ) --short enough
to fit on US Letter; narrow enough for A4. The downside is that
you will end up with extra white space (L&R on US, T&B on
A4). OTOH, you can print the PDF anywhere.<br>
<br>
The other is to define two templates (one for each paper size),
and then generate two PDFs (applying the "other" template between
generation).<br>
