2. I believe this is the best workflow. Why go through the hassle of moving pages, turning on the ‘do not shuffle’ option, and inviting mistakes when you can leave everything as is and the printer does the work for you.

3. You can make a tri-fold with guides and columns but since InDesign added support for multi-sized pages it’s a shame not to use it. As I said, what if you decide that the center-panel has to be an inch wider, but the right or left panel should stay the same as before. That would be a lot of work with guides. But with multi-sized pages it’s a breeze. I don’t create so much tri-folds so I don’t have a ‘standard procedure’.
