Print 16 page booklet

How do I print a 16 page booklet 4 pages up, bothsided, without acrobat scaling my pages to a very small size and only printing 2 up, instead of 4 up? It looks like Acrobat thinks the pages are all 8.5x11 but they are 4.25x5.5.
How can I remedy this problem.

You can print to a new PDF and select the 4-up in the printer properties (in some versions, I think there may be a multi-up on the print menu). My experience is that the margins seem to shrink the pages some and I have never figured a way out of that one. You might try to crop the pages to no margins first and then try the print from Acrobat to a new PDF.

I am trying to print a booklet. I have printed it several times without issue. Now when I print, it gives me one blank page or else 2 out of my 8 pages?

I am trying to print a booklet. I have printed it several times with no issues. Now when I try to print it (with no changes in the program) it will either give me a blank page or will print one of my pages (there are 8 pages total). Any help?

No I didn't even read through your post, to long.
You said that "No matter what program I try to install, as soon as the installer opens it crashes". Were you talking about the install for this/these 3D programs or ANY program? As it is worded it sounded like ANY program. That tells me there is a problem with your Mac, software or hardware.
Now you say others install programs, which is it. Programs other then the 3D ones install or no programs install?
Could simply be your Mac is to old to run these programs and the installer knows that. You never said what model or year Mac it is.

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.

I'm editing a 24 page booklet which when I open in Pages 5.0.1 is single pages. How can I change the format to facing pages to give to the printer?

I'm editing a 24 page booklet which was done about a year ago in another version of Pages. When I open it now in Pages 5.0.1 it comes up as single pages. My question is how do I get it back to a facing pages format to give to the printer?

Export to Pages 09 and use that. Version 5.1 lacks the ability to use alternating left/right margins and many,many other features that are present in Pages 09. Pages 5.1 adds back a vertical ruler ( why ever was it omitted?) but still lacks about 90--that's nine zero, as in "nearly 100"-- features that were in Pages 09. Some of these features are obscure , some very basic. At this point, however, Pages 5.1 is a novelty application, basically useless for any serious work

Problem when printing booklets prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if I wants to print all

I am using XP and 2000 MS word
I am having a problem when printing booklets from time to time. I get it ready to print in booklet form with 12 pages and my printer gives me the options. “Print all” “current page” “selection” or “pages” Because it is booklet I want to print the first 4 pages to be folded and glued as a small book. When I inter 1-4 as the example shows some times it prints OK but about a week later it prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if it wants to print all. I thought it was the printer but think it could be in some setting of the word program or my computer it self.

Also does this (i.e. prints web pages over several pages despite changing settings) on my laptop at work with an HP printer. This started when I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1.

Printing a booklet - Margins (move page to outer edge)

Hi,
I'm trying to print a booklet. The Problem I have is how to set the page margins correctly.
My file is in A4 and then I use the booklet printing feature which then prints 2 pages per sheet as desired.
I would like the 2 pages on the sheet to be on the outer edge of the page and have a rather big empty space in the middle for binding.
But the middle is once the right and once the left border so I can't just increase the left or right margin in the source document.
How can i achieve this? I know it should be possible but I don't know how.
I hope you understand the problem.

Under page scaling in the print dialog select none and choose a bigger page size. Don't set final pdf pages to A3 as this leaves no room for trims....

I want to create a 5" x 7" multiple page booklet in Pages what kind of template do I use to make sure the information is on the right page and will print on the proper sheets?

I want to create a 5" x 7" multiple page booklet in Pages. What kind of template do I use so the text prints in order on the pages and on the right sheets? HELP!!!!

While there are templates available for several n page booklets, using them requires a separate template for each size (in pages) booklet you'll want to make.
A better method is to use some form of imposition software for mac that will do the imposing (placing each page on the correct sheet) using a copy of your content, printed to a PDF document. The link is to a Google search using that phrase as the search term.
For a more detailed discussion of imposition and some of the available software, see Peter Breis's post "imposing booklets" at the iWork Tips & Tricks site. (Scroll down)

Print Pages as spreads without Print Booklet???

I have a document made up with 6 page spreads and 4 page inside. Trying to ouput a proof.
I the 6 pages printed fine. But I want to print pages 3-6 as spreads, as in 6,3,4,5 and to print back to back.
But pages 4,5 came out as spreads and 6,3 came out as single pages...
I need 6,3 to spreads and to back 4,5?

Yeh I prefer the PDF method as Jongware suggested. Placed InDesign files can cause InDesign (well my computer) to go really slow especially when the InDesign pages are fairly content heavy. I don't know why but more that about 16 pages of placed indesign files and InDesign is really slow.
The PDF has the advantage also because you can export to a smaller low res version, and that is perfect for an in-house proof, test my measurements and is faster when sending it through the printer, generally.
I'll have to investigate this problem further. I was hoping it would be a simple matter of inserting something like
Range: 6,3
and that would treat it like a spread or something?
But it doesn't work, I was hoping for some sort of easy fix like "{6,3}" or something, the way you can do for absolute page numbers with "+1" for the very first page regardless of page numeral or section applied.

Printing multiple copies of multiple page booklet

I have a powerpoint slide that I converted into a PDF but instead of printing on the whole page I've done it 4up on a 8.5X11. The only thing is that it prints pages 1 to 4 on one page. Since I"m making like 200 copies it makes it difficult to sort and organize them. I want to be able to cut and organized all at the same time.
So this is how I see it done unless someone here tells me otherwise:
I'm thinking page one (either 8.5x11 4up or 11x17 8 up) would be all page 1.
Page two would be all of page 2 and so forth all through all the pages.
Then the pages would repeat itself after the last page again.
The questions though is how do I set that up to do that? Or is there a better way? I could manually create the 4up or 8up layout for each page and print it that way but I would imagine that to be unnecessary and there must be a way.
Please help

Assuming you have Acrobat, this question belongs in the Acrobat forum. I suggest you look at quite imposting from Quite software: http://www.quite.com

How do I create a 4 page "booklet" with pages 2 & 3 as ONE landscape page?

I have a 4 page "booklet" and there is a slight gap btween bages 2 & 3 when I print. I have it set up as a "centerfold"

More info please.
Do you have a 4 page, facing pages document that you are running through Print Booklet?
With or without bleeds?
Are all pages the same page size?
Any bleeds or margins set in the Print Dialog, through the Print Booklet dialog?
Printer info...any advanced features used (Fold, impose)?

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.

Two-sided printing and booklets (HP D2360)

I am trying to do two-sided printing and booklets with an HP DeskJet D2360 printer. I installed on my MacBook the software I downloaded from hp.com. The printer was correctly identified even before I installed its driver.
I am trying to print web pages, ODT documents, and PDFs documents from Preview, either two-sided or as booklets. The booklet printing option appears nowhere, while the two-sided printing option is grayed-out. Both options show up and work properly under Windows XP.

1. If the form is a oure XFA form then you can control the duplex printing settings in the Master Pages. You may need to define a second Master page that has the duplex printing on for the appropriate pages.
2. Yes having a checkbox indicate a value in another field is possible but you will need script to do it. On the chanege event of the checkbox you want checked you can add code like this:
if (this.rawValue == 1){
numericFieldName.rawValue = 100.00
} else {
numericFieldName.rawValue = 0.00;

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.

Saving as a PDF in print page order [not actual page order]?!?!

Hiya,
I've got a 20 page newsletter, each page A4, all created in InDesign CS3 [nice and simple]. I want to print the document in print page order [as appose to actual page order] on our printer here at work, because it's clever and can fold and staple to create a book/newsletter etc! In InDesign, I can obviously use the 'print booklet' option to do just this, and it works great; all my pages are printed in the correct order, I can also choose to print 2-sided, all lovely. But I was wondering if there is an option somewhere to be able to save my InDesign doc as a PDF in print page order [front with back, page 2 with 19 etc] - as printing a PDF of my artwork seems to solve a problem i was having in the thread I posted up yesterday.
Cheers guys

This is called "imposition". Does your OS and InDesign version come with the "Print as Booklet" option?
If not, you can enter this range into the page number "Range" box on exporting:
20,1,2,19,18,3,4,17,16,5,6,15,14,7,8,13,12,9-11
(Typed from memory; -- please check)
If I then print this PDF to my HP with the options "double sided" and "2 pages per sheet", it comes out exactly the way it should.
(Waiting for the printer ... hold on.)
Well whaddoyouknow -- I got the numbering right first time. Perfect!

Creating a multipage PDF that prints 2 booklets side by side?

Hi I am a designer with NO pre-press experience and I need some help!
I am trying to print a booklet that is set at 8.5 x 7 as a 2 up document on 8.5 x14 paper. My problem is that I don't want the booklets to print consecutive pages (right now they would print 1,2 3,4 5,6 etc.) I want them to print side by side so that when the sheets are cut we would have 2 completed and collated books.
I know that I could just duplicate each page and print that, but I am wondering if there is a quicker way to make this happen? We have over 100 different multipage PDFs to print so I'm looking for a lean way to get this done.
Is this possible? Do I need to purchase pagination software?

When I need to do this I generally make a file set up as a single page (8.5 x 7, in this case) for easy design, then create a second, non-facing doc at two-up size (8.5 x 14) and place the pages from the first file int the second tow times so I have two copies per page. I use the Multi-page importer script for this: InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files
