Why I made this:
Printing phone directories is a pain. I got pulled into helping
with my churches phone directory printing. It was a word
doc and when a new name was added, names after it had
to be shifted. This was painful.

Pages:
The assumption of this utility is that you want to fold pieces of paper
in half, and staple them together to make a booklet. You may want
a page or two prior to your directory, like a cover page, and maybe
some church info, or birthdays, or whatever. And you may want some
pages at the end for a back cover, or anything else. You may also end
up with extra space, since each piece of paper is 4 folded pages. That's
where the notes.html is used if necessary.

Page Printing Layout:
Let's assume you had a cover page (pre1), and a inside back cover
page (post1), and a back cover(post2), and 6 pages of entries. You would
get a PDF that was 6 pages long, and when printed double sided (flipped
on long edge), you'd get 3 pieces of paper with pages layed out like below:

Piece of paper 1
Page 12
(back cover)
Page 1
front cover
(pre1)
page 2
(entries)
page 11
inside back cover
 (post2)

Piece of paper 2

page 9

How to prep your data:
Just put it all into a CSV file. this can be done from Excel,
or a google sheet. Each row needs to be an entry, and each
cell will be a row in that entries text in the directory. Empty
cells are ignored, and the first row is ignored since it is
normally headers

Example:
The following CSV:

Name
Address
Home Phone
Cell Phone
Email
Smith, John & Jen
2 Main St . East Cupcake

555-888-9999

Jones, Jerry & Joan
5 Elm Ave, West Somewhere
555-777-5252

joneseses@gmail.com
Franklin, Jim & Jan
12 Side Ave, Centerville

555-444-3232

Would give the following entries:
Smith, John & Jen
2 Main St . East Cupcake
555-888-9999

Jones, Jerry & Joan
5 Elm Ave, West Somewhere
555-777-5252
