I would like to see an option within the Document Setup when creating a new document to arrange spreads in readers spreads or printers spreads. This way, I would not spend two hours attempting to manually arrange my pages into the correct spreads.

For example: I have created a new document with 12 pages (not facing pages). However, in order to see the pages in printers spreads, I need to go about individually changing page settings for each page within the document. I want the back cover (p.12) and front cover (p1) to sit side by side so that in the pages palette, the spread would display [12,1]. See attached screenshot.

The pages would display as spreads this way in the pages palette:
[12,1]
[2,11]
[10,3]
[4,9]
[8,5]
[6,7]

How much easier would this be than if Adobe would build this option in to the Document Setup while creating a new document?

I generally use printers spreads for about 75% of my documents and each time I have to spend so much time trying to set this up properly. It is frustrating.
