For readability, I display the pages on top of each other rather than side-by-side (book format). Chapters and sections begin on even pages (left side) with introductory photos. Title pages begin on odd pages (right side).

To see the book layout, reduce the percentage in the title bar below to about 50. Then click the three dots in the title bar (right side) and select “Two page view.”
