How do I print a booklet?

How do I print a booklet?  Using an iMac with OS 10.6.7 and can use either MS Office 2011 or Pages.

Give us at least some information as to what it is you mean by "print a booklet".
To a commercial printing press or to a desktop printer?
Using imposition to place pages in multi-page per sheet order?
To full color cmyk/spot color/back & white/mixed?
With bleeds?
etc.

  • How can I print a booklet without a white outline around the border?

    How can I print a booklet without a white outline around the border? I'd like the front page to be covered entirely.

    You either need a borderless printer, or you have to print on oversize paper and trim off the bleed.

  • How can I print a booklet where each pdf page is vertically placed on each half page instead of one pdf on each booklet page?

    I've printed a booklet before but each pdf page had two powerpoint slides on each pdf file.  This binder has one powerpoint slide on each pdf page and if I try to print it as a binder, each pdf page takes up the whole half-page on the booklet.  I want to print two pdf slides on each page of the booklet so when I open the booklet, there are four powerpoint slides printed.  So I basically want to combine the ability to print multiple slides per page but in a booklet form.

    Why not reconstruct the pages in InDesign they way you want the double pages to appear. There may even be an imposition script available that will do the trick. You could then output to pdf all the pages you want the full spread on. Leave the original to create the pages you wanted left as is.
    You can ask in the ID forum about an imposition script. I know there was one with CS4, there may have been one with CS3.

  • How do I print a booklet with a colour cover but with black and white inside pages?

    Hi there,
    I need to print a large amount of booklets, which have a colour cover but are grayscale on the inside. However, I am having trouble setting up my document to successfully do this and I am unsure if it is something I can change in InDesign or if it is something I should figure out with my printer driver?
    We used Page Plus for these booklets in the past and were able to do this with the same printer, so that makes me think there might be setting I could change in InDesign to achieve the same result.
    It integral that the printer knows that the inside pages of the booklet are black and white, as we get charged per copy for colour printing and it is vastly increasing our printing costs.
    My coworker believed that exporting the file as a PDF with the options: Colour Conversions (convert to destination - Pressure Numbers), Destination (sRGB IEC61966-2.1), and Profile Inclusion Policy (Don't Include Profiles) is making a difference. However, I don't believe is is the case.
    If anyone had another suggestion that I could try, that'd be great!!

    @Eugene – do you have details for "Export as Grayscale"?
    I tried with the following details:
    Target-Profile: Dot Gain 15%
    Convert to Target Profile
    Include Target Profile
    If I do it this way I get:
    Target Profile not included
    Wrong numbers for my colors
    (I tested with a self-made color wedge on the page for the percentages of Black shown below)
    Seen in Acrobat Pro 10 with proof simulation "Dot Gain 15%":
    100 % Black => 100 %
    80 % Black => 82 %
    60 % Black => 63 %
    40 % Black => 43 %
    20 % Black => 22 %
    I could convert to "Dot Gain 15%" in Acrobat Pro's Preflight Panel, but this would show the same wrong percentages (just tested).
    What I can do, however, is printing to PostScript with color separations, only color channel Black.
    That would work, if I chose a Distiller setting, that will not change the color, to convert my separated PostScript file to PDF.
    Seen in Acrobat Pro 10* with proof simulation "Dot Gain 15%" or any of the other available gray scale profiles.
    (Acrobat Pro 11 might get this wrong due to a bug)
    100 % Black => 100 %
    80 % Black => 80 %
    60 % Black => 60 %
    40 % Black => 40 %
    20 % Black => 20 %
    This separated PDF (channel Black only) can now be converted with a self-made correction* in Acrobat Pro's Preflight Panel to a gray scale PDF/X-1a.
    If done right * the color values stay as defined in inDesign.
    Output in my case:
    PDF/X-1a
    OI: GrayScale profile Black ink of ISO Coated v2 300%
    Tested with:
    InDesign CC 2014.2
    Distiller X
    Acrobat Pro X
    Mac OSX 10.7.5
    Uwe
    * There are several, convoluted steps necessary to get this (hope, I can remember them all):
    Not optional:
    Have a grayscale profile representing the channel Black of your intended output CMYK or generate one!
    In my case the base CMYK profile was: ISO Coated v2 300%.
    And I got a "Black Ink of ISO Coated v2 300%" profile for Grayscale conversions by generating this with my PhotoShop app.
    Maybe optional, but helpful:
    Change the color settings of Acrobat Pro X to use the color settings file you generated in PhotoShop where:
    Grayscale is defined as the black channel of ISO Coated v2 300%: "Black Ink of ISO Coated v2 300%"
    Mandatory, but somehow tricky:
    Then on to the Preflight Panel of Acrobat Pro to generate a custom preflight profile.
    None of the ordinary ones will fit exactly (at least in my Acrobat Pro X).
    1. Make a duplicate of an already stored Preflight profile that converts color to Gray. Name it appropriately.
    2. Include a single correction for converting to Gray Scale (at this time, or if you do something like that the first time, it's not possible to change or duplicate that single correction)
    3. Save your new profile. Close the profile.
    4. Open the profile again.
    5. Now, suddenly it's possible to duplicate that single correction (converting to Gray Scale).
    Do some changes, appropriate correction options, eg. adding "Black Ink of ISO Coated v2 300%" as OI to the PDFs you will convert.
    4. Use that duplicate single correction in your new Preflight profile.
    5. Save your custom preflight profile.

  • How can I print books & booklets using my Mac?

    Hi,
    I am looking for some way to help me print ebooks from my computer into book-like form factor for easy reading. Below I explain in more detail my needs. Thanks for reading.
    Over the past 2 yrs or so I have purchased a number of ebooks, some of them are hundreds of pages. Mostly I read them directly from my computer recently however, I noticed that my eyes have started to get tired quite easily so I decided that at least some of the ebooks I would print. They are not DRM protected, so that is not a problem.
    However, despite me printing 2 pages on one sheet of paper I noticed that it is still not as easy to read as a normal book and it does take lots and lots of paper sheets to print to.
    So, I began searching (VersionTracker, Google, etc) for some sort of software capable of printing these ebooks as normal (and easy reading books) and preferably 4 pages onto one sheet of paper, 2 pager of each side of the sheet.
    This can be done using the normal OS X printing utility but for tens or even hundreds of pages they need to be printed in a certain order so that in the end I could fold them or cut and bind them and have a normally looking book/booklet that is easy to read from.
    Despite searching for days I could only find one program (for windows) capable of accomplishing the above mentioned task.
    Can anyone recommend me a way that I can print (some) of my ebooks using a Mac or Mac software or "for Mac" software?
    I am looking for a Mac-like, reliable and quality solution and preferably less than 50-70 euros that offer trials.
    Thank you for your time.

    Hi a brody!
    Thanks for your fast reply. Yes, this is the software that I mentioned above as being the only one I could find. I emailed them 2 days ago and begged for a trial version for Mac but they denied. That is suspect as it makes me wonder about the quality of the software, especially since it is at version 3 vs. 10 on the windows. I did however downloaded their windows version and played with it for 3 days now. It does the job for me although there are some settings that would not work on a consistent basis (or it could be just me, of course).
    So, since they refuse to give me a chance to try their software, I will trust your word on it. Much obliged!
    If anyonelse can offer more suggestions, that is appreciated as well.
    Thanks.

  • How do I print a booklet from a non-duplex printer in InDesign 5?

    I want to print a 16-page, 2-up Saddle Stitch booklet, so I need to print odd spreads and then flip them over and print even spreads. I can't select which spreads to print in the print dialogue box though.

    I don't know if this shot of my dialog box is clear enough, but the pdf image previews as two landscape A5 spreads on a sheet of A3 paper. It's ok on the front and back cover though. I want one A5 spread per A3 page as the PDF is. I haven't fond a way to do this yet...any help would be gratefully received...

  • When I print a PDF it always prints as a booklet, how can I print 1 full page?

    When I print a PDF it always prints as a booklet, how do I print a full page?

    In the Print dialog box you should be able to indicate which page you want to print and that page will print.  For instance, if you are viewing page 4, in the Print dialog, select "current page" and page 4 prints. This won't work if your page is actually a 2-page spread.  What size is the booklet?

  • HT1349 how do i print the bonus booklets that come with some albums i have purchased

    how do i print the bonus books that come with some albums i purchased?

    I have a Mac so I tried this. I opened the booklet outside of iTunes and the app that opened it, has a print option.
    These digital booklets are simply PDF files and Adobe makes an app that can open them and print them and it is free to use.

  • HT1391 How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the recordings I purchased

    How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the albuns I bought?

    cu is right.
    classloader returns the URL of your resource. You can the jar using something like the following...
    ClassLoader classloader = this.getClassLoader();
    url = classloader.getResource("your_resouces...");
    if(url == null)
    System.out.println("cannot find resource ");
    return null;
    String jar = url.getFile();
    jar = jar.substring(jar.indexOf("/")+1, jar.lastIndexOf("!")).replace('/', '\\');
    obviously, this code snippet works on windows only. Now you have the jar file path. I use Jar file classes to access the jar file. (e.g. you can search for each class files)

  • How do I print a Word document in booklet format?

     I have an HP Deskjet 3050A J611 series and MSWord 2010.   I can print in booklet format on my old HP printer, but can't find a way of doing it with my new printer.  Can you help?  thanks Rosie

    Thanks for taking the trouble to provide me with this information. I knew about these options and applied them but I wasn't doing duplex printing properly. I did eventually get a booklet but to quote one of your sources:
    "Despite these options, Word is a poor bookbinding program. If you're into document publishing, consider getting a desktop publishing program, such as Adobe InDesign or Microsoft Publisher, which are far better equipped to deal with this topic."
    Publisher does a better job. Thanks again for all your help!

  • How do i get Reader to NOT print in booklet form?

    All my print settings are set to print normal, but only adobe reader prints in booklet form.  I've checked the "properties" settings for the printer and the "page layout" is set to 1 page per sheet and booklet is not checked.  On the print dialog screen the page scaling is set to "shrink to printable area."   Adobe Reader is the only program that prints as a booklet. Is there something i'm missing???

    Dear user,
    You should be doing just fine if you have already ensured that printer settings are not referring to booklet as well as Reader printer dialog.
    This works just fine for all the users. Are you still seeing this issue or is this resolved?
    Thanks,

  • Printing a booklet

    I am having a terrible time trying to print a booklet.  The end result should be 8.5 x 11, printed on 11 x 17 paper.
    If I try to print directly to our Canon ImageRunner, I get an error.
    If I export to a PDF, it either prints out as an 11 x 17 page size or I get a booklet with the pages all out of order.
    If I were printing from something like WORD, this would be a breeze.
    How can I get help?

    And don't attempt to use the Canon's booklet module from Print Booklet.
    If the Canon has a finisher that can fold and staple, I think you'd do better to export the file to sequential pages as a PDF and print from Acrobat.
