I am working on a document that will eventually be sent out to a printer and printed as a booklet. While finalizing the content, I use InDesign’s booklet print feature to create printed drafts for review. So far, so good.
In the draft I created today, I needed to make some edits to pages 18 and 19, which are not the center spread in the booklet. Pulling the booklet apart, page 18 is on the left hand side and page 11 is on the right hand side; page 10 is on the left hand side and page 19 is on the right hand side.
I was surprised (and pleased) to see that the booklet print window includes the option to select a range of pages for printing, but I have now tried to identify the page range I want to print in about four different combinations of numbers, and none of them have resulted in printing the pages correctly imposed.
Does anyone know the correct format to identify specific page numbers to be printed when using InDesign’s booklet print feature?

Believe it or not, I hadn’t tried that order yet–but I just tested it, and I got 11 on the left side with 18 on the right side, and 19 on the left side with 10 on the right side–so exactly flipped the opposite of what they should be.
Besides that, I have tried 11,18,10,19 and 18,11,10,19. I didn’t keep track of how each of those printed, but they were not correct. I also tried just printing 11,18 by itself, and 10,19 by itself. Both of those ended up with a half blank sheet–so, for example, page 18 was printed on the right side of an 11×17 sheet, and the left side was blank, and page 11 was printed on the left side of a separate 11×17 sheet and the right side was blank.
