5 is a general-purpose form, 6 and 16 are booklets, 7 is a saddle stitch part, 8 is an envelope, 14 is a 6-fold data output form, 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1
g, 1h is each page of the 4-fold data output form, 11a, 11b, 11c, 11
d, 11e, 11f, 11g, 11h, 11i, 11j, 11k, 11l represent each page of the 6-fold data output form.

As shown in FIG. 1, the data output form 1 which constitutes the saddle stitch booklet of the present invention has each page divided by a horizontal fold line 2 and a vertical fold line 3 with 1b on the back of 1a. , 1d has 1c on the back, 1e has 1f on the back, and 1h has 1g on the back. The printer output characters on each page are printed in the forward direction for 1a, 1b, 1g, 1h and in the reverse direction rotated by 180 degrees for 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f. Printing in the opposite direction rotated by 180 degrees is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-388.
It can be carried out using the printing device described in 64.

When the data output form 1 shown in FIG. 1 is first folded along the horizontal fold line 2 so that 1a is on the front side and then along the vertical fold line 3 so that 1a is on the front side, FIG. The four-fold data output form 4 in the state of) is obtained. When the data output form 1 folded in the state of FIG. 2A is bound by the saddle stitching part 7 along the fold line 3 and the three sides other than the saddle stitching part 7 are cut off by makeup, the data output form 1 is opened. Each page of data output form 1 is 1
A saddle-stitched booklet 6 in which the characters of each page are arranged in the forward direction, which are arranged in the order of a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1g, 1h, is obtained.

The embodiment of the data output form 1 shown in FIG. 1 is used by a life insurance company. 1a is the address of the contractor, 1b is the contracted details of the contractor, and 1c and 1d. Is a company's business performance, etc., 1e and 1f are three-way open envelopes for voting, 1f is a reply address and bar code corresponding to the contractor code, and 1g and 1h are questionnaires.
It is a double-sided envelope, and the address for reply and the bar code corresponding to the contractor code are printed on 1h.

With respect to the print contents of each page of the data output form 1 described above, since the disclosures such as company achievements printed on 1c and 1d are fixed information, data is printed by the printing machine before printing the form. It may be printed on a predetermined page of the output form 1. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the printing amount when outputting to the printer. 1a, 1b, 1f, 1h are personal information consisting of variable data and are printed by printer output.

In producing the saddle stitch booklet 6, if there is a lot of fixed information other than personal information consisting of variable data,
Prepare a general-purpose form 5 printed with fixed information in advance, stack the required number of general-purpose forms 5 and fold it in half,
The saddle-stitched booklet 6 may be a set of the 4-fold data output form 4 and the set.

The obtained saddle stitch booklet 6 is folded in two and enclosed in an envelope 8 to form a sealed booklet containing the saddle stitch booklet 6. It is possible to obtain a sealed booklet in which a booklet that is excellent in appearance and has no risk of saddle stitching type mismatching is sealed.

The data output form 11 in the other embodiment which constitutes the saddle stitch booklet of the present invention shown in FIG. 4 is a case where there is a large amount of personal information consisting of variable data. Regarding the arrangement, 11b is on the back of 11a,
There is 11c behind 11d, 11f behind 11e, 11g behind 11h, 11j behind 11i, and 11k behind 11l. The direction of the characters output from the printer on each page is 11a, 11b, 11e, 11f, 11h, 11g 11l, 11k in the forward direction, and 11c, 11d, 11i, 11j in the reverse direction rotated 180 degrees.

First, the data output form 11 shown in FIG. 4 is Z so that 11a comes to the front by the horizontal fold line 2-1 and the horizontal fold line 2-2.
Fold it in a line and then fold line 3 so that 11a and 11l are on the table. 6-fold data output form 14 shown in Fig. 5 (a).
It becomes the state of. The six-fold data output form 14 in the state shown in FIG. 5A is bound at the saddle stitching portion 7 along the vertical fold line 3, and the three sides other than the saddle stitching portion 7 are cut off by makeup, so that the data is opened when the data is opened. Each page of the output form 11 is 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e, 11f,
A saddle stitch booklet 16 in which 11g, 11h, 11i, 11j, 11k, and 11l are arranged in this order and the prints on each page are all arranged in the forward direction is obtained.
