Printing multiple pages per A4 sheet

I am printing 2 pages side by side on A4 peper. This should give me an A5 booklet at the end. The preview window shows the pages centred on the paper, but when it prints there is a much larger margin on the left hand side. After hand feed double sided printing, I cannot fold in half as center is different on the 2 sides and is not the center. HP 6110, Windows XP, Reader 8. Any advice welcome.

I think you would need to adjust the gutters on every other page, clumsy way to produce A5 booklet, we always print to A5 to avoid this problem.

  • Printing multiple pages per sheet on Adobe Reader for Windows 8

    I cannot print multiple pages per sheet on Adobe Reader touch for windows 8.1

    What is your Reader version?  In Reader XI 11.0.07 you would click on Multiple, then specify 4 (or 2) pages per sheet:

  • Can't print multiple pages per sheet

    Hi there - I'm a real newbie to this whole adobe reader thing and I need help!! I've been trying to print multiple pages per sheet and I just can't. I know where I can change the presets but when I'm in the print dialog presets I can't click on anything. It won't allow me. What's wrong?
    I'm using adobe reader 8.1.3 and the document i'm trying to print is a powerpoint document converted into a pdf. Is this why I can't change the settings? Or do I need the adobe reader 9 standard? i'm just so confused!
    thanks in advance!!

    Yes, it used to work, and the resize zoom bar used to work too (now its grayed out). I don't know if this is a "who's to blame for it" thing, but its not getting fixed and its pretty bad that no one seems to care enough even to respond. I found my own solution by opening it in Gimp. Just right click and select open with other ...Gimp and it will import into it. In the Gimp Print dialog, you have a scaling percentage in the "Page Setup" tab, and size settings in the "Image settings" plus loads of other stuff including multiple copies.

  • How do you get rid of white space when you are printing multiple pages to one sheet of paper?

    How do you get rid of extra white space when you are printing multiple pages to one sheet of paper?  When printing multiple pages to one sheet of paper Acrobat won't let you select the "zoom" for printing.
    Thanks

  • No Scaling when Printing Multiple Pages per Sheet

    I'm trying to print a pdf document but with 2 pages per sheet. I tried to scale up the document by 10% (in the page setup tab) but it actually scaled down about 30%. Any idea what could be going wrong? Can Adobe even scale up and print multiple pages on the same sheet?

    Are you using the Multiple button under the Page Size & Handling section of the Reader Print dialog? This section allows you to determine how many pages are printed per sheet. The scaling is pre-determined by the number of sheets you have selected.

  • Printing multiple pages per sheet using a PostScript driver and GhostScript.

    I have three PDF files containing a total of 165 pages. I would like to print 162 of these pages onto two sides of a 8.5 × 11 in. "Letter" size paper. That is 81 pages per sheet. I don't care about loss of clarity or readability, just that fact that there are 81 (or I suppose 80 would be possible and would fit much nicer) pages of the document shown. I've seen this done before, so it is possible. It involved printing using a PostScript driver. I don't own a PostScript printer, so GhostScript will take the resulting PostScript document and print it on a non-PostScript printer.
    The first issue I'm having is with using the PostScript driver to print 80 pages per sheet. The only printing options I can find allow you to print 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet, no customizable value present.
    Does anyone have any words of advice or a source for information on the process of how this can be done? Thanks in advance.

    "The only printing options I can find allow you to print 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet, no customizable value present."
    There's no "Custom..." to choose from.
    Edit: Alright! I solved my own problem. In order to print a customizable number of pages per sheet 'Page Scaling', under the 'Page Handling' section of the  'Print' window, must be set to "Multiple pages per sheet". At this point more options populate the window, one of which is a new but seperate dropdown for 'Pages per sheet' with "Custom..." as a selection. This is different, however, from the 'Print' window's 'Properties' sub-window which has a form entry drop-down for 'Pages Per Sheet'. Hurray for unintuitive software GUIs! Hopefully this post will help others.

  • In Pages '09, OSX 10.8 how do I print multiple pages on one sheet of paper.  (I used to be able to do this in earlier versions via the "page setup" menu.

    Forget it.  The answer is that the multiple page per page setup comes up in the printing menu.  (When you do command-P)

    Click on the Show Details button in the Print dialog.
    Whenever options seem to disappear, have a look around and explore what is available. Particular when they have what appears to be relevent labels.

  • Preview buggy when printing multiple pages per sheet using a custom paper size

    I have a square book I've designed and I've printed the pages to a PDF. Now I'd like to re-print the pages so you can see facing pages together exactly like when, in preview, you select "View > Two Pages".
    Each page is 12x12 so I'd like to re-print them to be 24x12 (24-wide)
    I was previously able to do this in preview (prior to mountain lion) using the "layout > two pages per sheet" option with a custom paper size but when trying with Mountain Lion, the print-dialog preview doesn't match the output when saved as pdf; pages either get shrunk or cropped without my permission and it generally seems to be buggy. I've been playing around with it for over an hour and can't get two pages side-by-side to take up a full 24x12 custom virtual page when saved as PDF
    I would expect the print preview to accurately display what will be printed (saved as PDF) and I am guessing that maybe the printer selected (HP all-in-one) is affecting the preview and save to pdf options?
    Can someone tell me how to achieve a printed rendition of the "view > two pages" layout?

    I have a little more information. I turned on "single hairline" border and as you can see, it's converting my square pages into "US Letter" pages BEFORE applying them two-to-a-page. So it's using my selection of "Paper Size" as both the source and destination paper size, rather than just the destination size, because my source is obviously 12x12 square (confirmed by looking at page properties in preview). Apple, please fix this

  • A way to reduce margins when printing multiple pages per sheet?

    I really like the new leopard print dialog box. Is there a way of reducing the large margins when printing 2, 4, or more pages per sheet (in Layout)?

    You could use custom page sizes (in the Page Setup dialog) or you could see if the settings in the Paper Handling panel help at all.

  • Printing multiple pages on one sheet not working.

    Hey All,
    I'm reasonably new to the mac environment and am having trouble getting pages to print multiple flyers on a single sheet. I've set the flyer up in Page Setup for it's actual size which is 4 x5.5inches. I've created the flyer within this size sheet. When I select Print and choose 4 pages per sheet under layout options, nothing happens. The preview does not update and the printed doc (both pdf and on my deskjet only have one small image as opposed to 4. Any ideas as to what's going on?
    I've used this type of feature on many other applications so I think i have a good grasp as to how it's supposed to work but am prepared to be educated!
    thx!

    have no idea about what is wrong on your machine.
    Here doing that I get a normal behavior:
    You may try:
    a - quit/close Numbers
    trash the preferences file:
    <bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers.pli st
    empty the trash
    restart Numbers.
    b - try to do the job from an other user account
    tell us how the beast behaves.

  • Keep recto/verso page placement when printing 'Multiple' pages on single sheet

    Dear All,
    my book is designed for duplex printing. Every chapter starts on recto (odd) page.
    When I need to print it for proofreading in the multiple mode (2 pages on single sheet), pages do not follow the original intent as the first page is placed on the verso page (left half of the sheet), not recto one (right half). I couldn't find any option to place the first page on the recto 'side' in the Print dialog.
    My current workaround is to place one blank page at the beginning of my PDF file.
    But I'd like to avoid this manual step in the future. Is there a more efficient way?
    Btw, it would be nice to add a single option for this into the Print dialog. It could be handy for everyone.
    What is the best place for such kind of feature request?
    Thanks, Jan

  • Reducing margins when printing multiple pages on one sheet

    When I print a pdf document from Preview, a document from Pages, or from any other application and select the Layout-> Pages Per Sheet as 2, 4, or more, very large margins are put around each sheet and between the pages on the sheet. If these margins could be reduced, the print size would be bigger. Is there any way to reduce these margins (say down to 1cm or so)?

    I figured out a way to reduce the margins. You can do it quickly by choosing Scale to Fit-> Fill Entire Paper, from the Preview settings in the print dialog box. You can also increase the scaling to make the writing fill up more of the page manually by choosing Scale -> and putting a higher percent. The preview window is helpful in showing what it will look like.

  • Stop printing multiple pages on one sheet

    When printing from Acrobat or Reader, the print preview and settings show that I am printing a single page on one sheet of paper. However, it actually prints two pages side-by-side on one sheet of paper. How would I stop this? This is the only program that does this. I have checked all printing settings in all Adobe products as well as the printer settings in the device's properties. Your help is greatly appreciated.

    It seems like an issue the with PostScript drivers installed on the machine. Did you install the latest version of PS Drivers on the customer's machine?
    You can also check this:
    Click on Advanced
    Select PostScript options
    Select Language Level 2

  • Printing: Multiple Pages per Sheet

    I need to print 2 a4's on SRA3 for bleed printing, my a4 is double side

    I'm not sure if you mean you want to print 2-up (make a new file and place the original in it twice), or if you are having trouble getting the front/back to register correctly (set the print position to Centered, and design so it can tolerate some shift on one side).

  • Multiple pages per sheet not working

    Help!
    I'm unable to print multiple pages per sheet in Adobe Reader X (version 10.1.3). It doesn't seem to matter what printer I select but only one image shows in the preview screen.
    I tried repairing the software but to no avail

    Hello Bernd,
    Thank you for your help - it seems that I have misunderstood this function.
    Do you know whether it's possible to print multiple identical copies of a single page document onto a large sheet of paper?
    e.g. I have an A1 plan printer that in theory could fit say 6 x identical A4 pages onto a single sheet of A1 paper.
