11x17 PDF on 8.5x11 paper front and back?

Is it possible to print a 11x17 PDF on 8.5x11 paper front and back?  Thanks!

Assuming you are asking about printing either from Adobe Reader or Acrobat, it certainly is possible. And such printing has been possible for many, many years.
Simply select the fit or shrink oversize pages option (or some similar wording for earlier versions of these products) and set the printer to print on both sides of paper (or duplex from printer setup from earlier versions of these products).
However, if you really mean that you want to print an 11x17 page on 8.5x11 paper such that one half appears on the front and the other half appears on the back of the 8.5x11 paper, that is not directly possible with the current versions of Reader or Acrobat. In Acrobat (not Reader), you would need to duplicate the single 11x17 page and then crop each of the pages to 8.5x11 with one half of the original page on the first 8.5x11 page and the other half on the second 8.5x11 page. Save as a new document and then print normally with the duplex option to 8.5x11 paper.

  • PDF files, front and back.

    In Adobe Illustrator CS2, is there a way to create a PDF file that is set up to print on the front and back of a page? I have my document currently set-up as an Illustrator file with multiple-page tiles.

    Your printer must be capable of printing on both sides, and every printer can have a different location where you change that setting.
    For example here is where you find them for the printer I am on, incase this helps. Click and hold mousedown on copies and pages, choose fiery features.
    Change 2-sided Printing to any setting but Off.

  • How do I print front and back with two pages per sheet? (OSX Lion)

    I can't find a simple solution to my situation...
    I'm using Max OSX Lion 10.7.3 and Adobe Reader X 10.1.2. 
    I want print two PDF pages onto one printed sheet, and I want to print front and back.  When I go to the print settings and select two pages per printed sheet, the sample window shows me what I'm looking for.  But when I tell it to print odd only or even only, it changes the print selection.  Here's what happens...
    Let's say I have a PDF document that is 20 pages long.  When I tell it to print two PDF pages per sheet, it shows me that the first pages printed will be PDF pages 1 and 2.  When I tell it that I want it to print odd pages only, it tells me that the first printed page will contain PDF pages 1 and 3.
    In other words, Adobe Reader wants to print the odd PDF pages instead of the odd pages of the printed document (PDF pages 1 and 2, then 5 and 6, then 9 and 10, so on).
    So that I'm being clear...
    This [  ] is a printed page.  The numbers inside the brackets represent the page numbers in the PDF document...
    What I want to print is this...
      FRONT   ||  BACK
    [1,2]    ||  [3,4]
    [5,6]    ||  [7,8]
    [9,10]   ||  [11,12]
    [13,14]  ||  [15,16]
      [17,18]  ||  [19,20]
    What would end up printing is this...
      FRONT   ||  BACK
      [1,3]    ||  [2,4]
      [5,7]    ||  [6,8]
      [9,11]   ||  [10,12]
      [13,15]  ||  [14,16]
      [17,19]  ||  [18,20]
    Aside from telling it exactly which PDF page numbers to print (this would be a taxing job because I'm working with a 273 page document), is there an easy and simple way to print how I'd like?

    I would suggest to use Adobe Ilustrator. Also I get an error message when I try tp access the sample document.
    You can download Illustrator using Adobe Creative download - http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator.html

  • How to print page in front and back in scripts

    hi,
    I want to know to know the how to print a page in front and back.

    HI Ragavendra
    set this
    <b>Print mode is D</b>
    With Print mode, you can specify single- or double-sided printing for a page. You can choose from the following values:
    <b>D </b>The page is printed on the first side of a sheet in duplex mode. If another mode was previously active, then the printer is switched to duplex mode with the start of the pageand continues in this mode.
    and other Print mode options are
    <b>Print mode</b>
    With Print mode, you can specify single- or double-sided printing for a page. You can choose from the following values:
    <b>' '</b> Currently active printing mode continues unchanged.
    <b>S </b>The page is printed in simplex mode. That is, the printer should print on only one side of the paper. If another mode was previously active, then the printer is switched to simplex mode with the start of the page.
    <b>D</b> The page is printed on the first side of a sheet in duplex mode. If another mode was previously active, then the printer is switched to duplex mode with the start of the pageand continues in this mode.
    <b>T </b>The page is printed on the first side of a sheet in tumble duplex mode. That is, the printer prints on both sides. The page on the second side is always inverted, so that the footer of the second page is printed opposite the header of the first page.
    If another mode was previously active, then the printer is switched to tumble duplex mode with the start of the page and continues printing in this mode.
    Print modes are currently supported for printers that use the PCL-5 language. These are printers that are defined with the following SAP device types: HPLJ_II, HPLJIIID, HPLJ4, LX4039, SNI20XX8.
    See the spool system (transaction SPAD) to check on how your printers are defined.
    The print controls for these functions are SPMSI (begin simplex printing); SPMDU (begin duplex printing); SPMTU (begin tumble duplex printing); SPMFS (print on first side of sheet in duplex or tumble duplex mode); and SPMBS (print on second side of sheet in duplex or tumble duplex mode).

  • Front and back inside covers?

    I just submitted my first book to be printed. I am concerned that the pages will not come out correctly, in as far as odd-even. In the iphoto book, the system automatically puts an inside cover at the beginning and at the end allowing those pages to print double sided for the front and back cover. However, when the pdf file is generated and viewed, no blank pages are created for this purpose. When the book gets printed, does the Apple printer allow for this? Will my odd pages start as odd or come out even as they did in the pdf file?

    RG:
    As I recall (all of my books were given away as gifts so I don't have them handy for reference) the odd pages did come out on the right with the even on the left as they should be.

  • Lost dust Jacket front and back flap

    I composed a book in Aperture using the Journal theme. After making a couple of PDF previews, somehow???? I have lost the dust JAcket front and back flap pages. I can't find a way to re-insert these from a master or build them any other way. I have tried to show the master pages and select the front dust jacket flap master and then 'Add New Page From Master', but it won't allow me to select that option. I still have the front cover and Back cover in the Pages layout. So, how do I rebuild the dust jacket flaps? My pages are as follows: 1st is the Front Cover; 2nd is a Blank page; then 3rd is my Table of Contents page(currently showing as Page 1). I made a duplicate (to experiment with ways to solve it) and tried to rebuild it using the same theme, but it makes a mess of it, loosing all my layouts. After having spent dozens of hours on this book and it was almost ready to send, I don't want to have to start all over again. Help!!!

  • I have an iphone 4 . A new screen has been fitted front and back. It suffered a bit of a bang. Now when the phone is turned on the apple logo appears but nothing more  . Could there be a problem elsewhere ? Other than smashed screen? Any ideas welcome

    I have an iphone 4 . It's had a new front and back screen fitted after a bit of a bang . Now when turned on the apple logo appears on the screen and then goes off. Then appears again etc etc etc .
    It won't go any further . Any ideas as to what else may be an issue or has anyone else had the same problem and what was the outcome . If I back up to iTunes will I be able to back up my information without any activity showing on the screen !! I'm lost without all my information . I haven't backed up to iCloud for at least 5 months. Can anyone help me PLEASE?????

    Sorry. We can't help you. It's no longer an iPhone. Apple won't touch it.
    Take it to whoever replaced the screen and see if they can help you.
    iPhones are not user servicable and Apple does not sell iPhone parts at all. I'd be surprised if you were actually able to back it up at this point. It sounds like it's completely borked.

  • HP Laserjet 4P has a 1" toner stain that runs down the left side of page.(front and back)

    Hello all,
    This is my first post here and I hope someone can help me. 
    We have a HP Laserjet 4P that we have used for a few years and recently have had a problem of a 1" toner stain that runs down the left side of the printed page(both front and back side). I have replaced the cartride and cleaned everything I know to clean. When I remove the cartridge, there is a little pile of toner on the left side just in front of the horizontal silver bar that is behind the roller. I have cleaned it up several times. Each time I try to print, The toner stain appears on the printed page again and leaves a new pile of toner in the same place.
    Does anyone have any experience with this problem? I am not sure if it is a worn part or a maintenance issue.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Fish

    Hi ProspeorusCE,
    The product you have is a commercial printer. I suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support for a better chance at finding a solution.

  • I am Using Iphone 3GS, Is it possible to change the complete front and back panels?

    I am Using I Phone 3GS model I got lot of scraches over the body of the phone. Is it possible to replace teh complete panel with new one??

    If you Google "iPhone 3gs parts" you will be able to find vendors that sell front and back panels.  So, I would say it is possible to replace the front and back panels.  I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you are experienced in this type of work.

  • Video storing on iPhone 5, front and back camera

    Ok I am going to be taking a fairly lengthy video in a few days. I have the iPhone 5 16 GB. I am needing to know how much space I need on my phone to store the video. The video is going to be around 45 minutes long. Anyone who can shed any light on this would be greatly appretiated. I would like to know how much memory I would need for both front and back camera.
    Thanks

    I have also found out that the front camera contains more noise than the back camera when taking photos. Is that normal?

  • Can you create 3D object using Repousse w/ front and back Inflation w/o seam?

    Greetings. I have created a 3d object using repousse in Photoshop (CS5 extended). The original 2d image is circular. I used the Magic Wand Tool to select the 2d image, then 3D/Repousse/Current Selection to create, selecting the inflate (rounded) Repousse Shape Preset with the Depth of 0. It creates the object as expected, except the front-and-back seam has minor irregularities leaving the object with an uneven seam (see image below). The original 2d image was created in Illustrator using the eliptical tool, so it is as regular as possible. I want it to be seamless. The image below shows the rotated object and the very distinct seam.
    Any ideas on how to get rid of, or avoid, that seam?  Thanks much.
