Change page size INDD

[kaiserwilhelm]

Remember how Quark would allow you to take a 17 x 11 and basically slide two 8.5 under it to then create single pages of 8.5 x 11?
Has Indesign ever come up with a way to do this?
Example. Customer sends in a spread with say P4 and P1 on it. I want to be able to paginate in my own software. So, instead of 17 inches it sees this 17 inch page as two 8.5 inch pages.

Multi page importer script can quickly achieve the same result

We just make the output PDF as spreads and split with Pitstop or during refine
