Remove margins for 2 page per sheet printing
Hi I was wondering if there was any way to get rid of the margins for 2 page printing on a single sheet. I'm using Adobe Reader X and it creates a 1-2 inch border around my entire document when I try to print two pages into one.

Quick: 2 page per sheet print
Hi,
Can't seem to get my head around this one.
I have a landscape format (a5) and I would like to print 2 page per sheet so it becomes a a4.
without changing the document size to a4.
quick answer very appreciated.Not going to work withthe way you've set up unless you place your current pages into a new file.
In CS4 or later you can set up a facing pages A5 PORTRAIT document, then rotate the spread view tro see them stacked as they would appear on A4. When exporting or printing, check the "Spreads" box to get the A4 size with the two pages.
Not that you'll want to start with an even page number or you'll be jumping through other hoops to get the first two pages together on a single spread. -
Adobe Reader X Print Default - Pages per Sheet
I have an old HP Laserjet 2200 series printer. When printing from Adobe (no other application), the default "pages per sheet" is 2. In the dropdown option box, 1 page per sheet is not listed! The only solution I have found is to select "Custom" from the dropdown list and specify 1 page per sheet. How do I correct this problem and specify Adobe's default of 1 page per sheet for all documents?
Are you referring to the print dialog in Reader or a driver setting?
For one page per sheet of output, one would normally would use the Size option as opposed to the Multiple option which was designed for 2 or more pages per sheet (although it will let you specify a custom setting of 1 x 1 pages per sheet.

Apple Mail - Printing without margins and/or headers, multiple pages per sheet
I have orders coming in by email that I need to print out as packing sheets/order tickets. In the email I have the submissions set to come in as html tables, all of a uniform size. I want to print 4 per page, and can do that by selecting 4 emails, "Print", and then 4 pages per sheet in the print settings and it gives me 4 unique orders on one sheet. But the giant standard margins make it so the submission tables are way too small (they could easily be almost double the size and fit fine on the sheet) and I don't want the email header information displayed. This really doesn't seem like too much to ask, I hope it's not really as impossible as all the forums make it seem! In another forum, BDAqua mentioned possibly making a script for this?
The order submissions are generated from my form on Jotform. This is a great form builder, at least in my first-time experience, but seems lacking in output options - reports can only be generated as tables, and on the web-based submission viewer the print options are extremely limited as well. I have also experimented with Excel: Jotform will export submissions all together on one excel spreadsheet, but in my situation that would mean I would have to figure out how to print each row separately. I spent some time on the excel forums and from what people said it sounds like a huge headache and very tedious. I created this form in order to save a lot of time in taking down orders, so it would be really nice to be able to print them directly in quarter-sheet format. Even in full-sheet format, I still wouldn't want the email headers or all the white space.
Any ideas? I'm running 10.9 on a 2009 MacBook Pro 13", and have a basic Brother HL-2070N laser printer and an Epson Workforce 610 (DC8508) - either would serve the purpose, but I doubt this issue has anything to do with which printer I'm using. Thanks for any ideas/feedback!What you are wanting to accomplish, can be done, but it is not necessarily a simple task and is going to require at least a modicum of programming skill. Filemaker comes first to my mind as offering reasonably powerful data extraction and analysis capabiity as well as the ability to store the transactions in a database and analyze the data in an almost infinite variety of ways. However, this will require the services of a Filemaker analyst and programmer to create and maintain the system. Don't forget the system will need almost continuous maintenance and enhancement.
If you can change the way you receive the orders, there is a large number of shopping cart systems offered by virtually every internet hosting firm that can be adapted to a wide variety of marketing activities and they maintain staffs of programmers to handle the adaptation and maintenance -- at a price. -
Printing two pages per sheet with equal margins
My first post here. I did a search but didn't see an answer to my question.
How can I get equal margins when printing two pages per sheet?
I print aviation approach plates 2 pages per sheet and fold the sheet of paper in half and carry with me in a knee board. I had no problem doing this until last week after my hard drive was changed. The steps I normally take are:
click file
print
print range: all
copies: 1
page scaling: multiple pages per sheet
pages per sheet: 2
page order: horizontal (for the first pass through the printer and horizontal reversed for the second pass)
print to file: box checked
the preview now shows a winder margin on the left side of the page than the right.
I can't figure out any way to even the margins. Anyone have any ideas?

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.

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.

4 "Pages per Sheet" in Printer dialog no longer works
I frequently print my documents to PDF 4 pages to a sheet, using the Save As PDF option in the Printer dialog (i.e., I don't have Acrobat installed). The last time I did this about 2 weeks ago, it worked fine. Today, it ignores my settings of 4 pages to a sheet and prints every page as a separate "sheet" in the PDF. The only thing I know of that has changed over the past two weeks is the update to 10.5.7. How do I fix this so I can print 4 pages to a sheet again?
Thank you.My problem is solved. I spent a lot of time on the phone with Apple support. When they mentioned I might need a printer driver update to keep up with the OS update, I noticed that I no longer had any printer installed at all. I don't know how that happened, but I will assume it had to do with the OS update.
I plugged in a printer, added its driver (which I later noticed caused me to have a new one, plus the original one reappeared), disconnected the printer (I don't want hard copy), and now it works perfectly as it did before. I get 4 pages per sheet like I should.
Don't ask me why the existence of a printer should matter when I am only creating a PDF. But that is what happened.
Thank you for spending time working to resolve. -
PDFs are always printed 2 pages per sheet
My system was reformatted recently and everything had to be reinstalled.
Acrobat Reader XI (11.0.2) and Acrobat Pro 9 (9.0.0*) are now having problems when printing PDFs: every PDF is always printed at 2 pages per sheet. The resulting 4-point type printouts are not useable.
Word prints 1 page per sheet.
I'm not exactly sure where to even start troubleshooting this. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks in advance!
*Yes, 9.0.0. When I accepted the last automatic update, Acrobat Pro started crashing on startup. I uninstalled and reinstalled, and am very, very wary about accepting an update right now.Well, that was interesting.
After running the Acrobat Cleaner from the above link, on both Acrobat Pro 9.0 and Reader 11.0.2, it looked like everything was gone.
However, the company uses CA's IT Client Manager, and its DSM Software Delivery Catalog thinks that Acrobat Pro is still installed. So does Add/Remove Programs.
Six system reboots and A long call with the help desk later, my case has been escalated to the CA team and we'll see what happens now.
Reader 11.0.2 is reinstalled, and now? It can't print AT ALL. I get this instead of a printout:
ERROR: undefined

Lexmark T630 network printer - always prints 2 pages per sheet
I'm trying to setup a Lexmark T630 for printing under Leopard 10.5.2. The printer prints just fine, but it always prints documents as half a sheet, thus, printing 1 a document with 1 page results in a sheet that has the page printed on one half and the other half is blank (as landscape). 2 pages will result in a landscape that has both pages on one sheet, next to each other.
Layout -> Pages per sheet is set to '1' .
I've tried setup with AppSocket,IPP or LPD , using the Lexmark provided driver (both from Apple and from lexmark.com) and a generic postscript driver.
I've tried various paper sizes (the paper is A4) , I've tried printing in landscape and portrait, scaling the pages to 50% or 200% and anything else I could think of.
Event the 'print test page' from http://localhost:631 (the CUPS web service) results in half a page, landscape, with the test page on the left side as a portrait.
Any Ideas..?Did you try throwing away the com.apple.printing files in your <home>/Library/Preferences folder? It sounds like a preferences file, but you could also try resetting the print system by holding down the control key while clicking in the list of printers in Print and Fax Prefs.
Hope this helps. -
Printing multiple copies per page, not multiple pages per sheet
How can I print multiple copies of page per sheet of paper?
I've got an image or PDF that I'd like to print 4 or more of per sheet of paper. But it can easily fit on one sheet. When I choose to print 4 copies and in the Layout section choose 4 copies per page what I get is for pages printed out with the image scaled down to a quarter of a page.
What I'd like is the one image scaled down and printed 4 times on a single piece of paper.I don't completely believe that this is completely
due to the drivers from the printer manufacturer.
Nor did I say that it is. The software from which the doc is being printed is
even more important re page layout options.
Your statement of "It is a function of the printer driver..." is what led to that misunderstanding.
I completely agree that the idea of 'print to PDF' is misleading and that I was mislead that all the print dialog options (like the quartz filters that do work in outputting to PDF and the # of copies that do not) should apply to creating PDF files using the print dialogue. It now says 'save to PDF' in 10.4 instead of 'output' or 'print'. I think some of my confusion is carrying over from UI decisions in 10.3.
Obviously it wasn't designed to work this exact way
or it would work this exact way.
I have no idea what this statement means.
It's stating the obvious in reply to your statement of the obvious ("the feature you are trying to use isn't designed to work that way."). If it were designed to work in the manner that I was wanting it perform I would have never posted a question about it.
You can say it's not commonly done and that would
apply to anything other than printing off one full
sized copy of any single page. Using Quartz filters
isn't "commonly done" but it's available.
Not true... mailing labels, multipage spreads, thumbnails, reductions/
enlargements, ad infinitum are far more frequently done than printing
the same content on the same sheet multiple times. As I said, however,
there are provisions for doing so when the need arises.
You missed the point. Functionality is presented that is far less utilized than what I was desiring to do on this platform/set of applications as compared to other platforms/sets of applications. This is why I specifically mentioned the quartz filtering. I have personally met only one other person who uses quartz filtering yet I know over a dozen that want to print in the manner I originally posted about.
I'm sure you have seen such results & I have done
the exact same type of output hundreds of times on
both Windows & Mac platforms as well as others...
but not in the manner you are attempting to get it
done. As you've found out, that just doesn't work.
And I've seen it performed in the manner I was attempting, furthering the frustration.
In any program you typically do specify page layout
before number of copies... in fact, that is the cruxt of the
issue. But getting the same content to repeat on a single
page is not a matter of page layout and is not a function
of the print operation unless you're dealing with commercial
devices.
I guess I've just been spoiled by those big office Xerox machines. I never thought of that functionality being at all special in any way.
Thank you for the assistance.

Print Sequence of Multiple Pages per Sheet
I am using Adobe Reader 11.0.10 on Windows 7. I have created a document using Word which has four pages set out as 2 pages per sheet double sided, landscape. Word prints the document with pages 1 & 4 on one side and 2 & 3 on the other (flipped on short side) However, if I save the document in PDF format and then print it, pages 1 & 2 are on one side with 3 & 4 on the other. Is there any way around this? I rather not keep two versions of the same document
thanks,
MikeI tried some things and came to conclusion, that the more pages I print the more bugs I got. Bit by bit I printed seperate pages again and replaced the wrong ones by them. But couldn't be the solution, could it?
Thanks for you help! -
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.

Printing 2 pages per sheet reduces size too much
Hi,
I'm printing a document using Reader 8.1.0.
I print 2 pages per sheet, side-by-side. A4 documents should be reduced to A5, that is reduction to 71%.
But the final result is reduced by more than that: 64%.
I tried on 2 different printers with the same result.
Is there a way to get 2 A5 pages? Is this linked anyway to the printers or to an option in Reader?
Thanks
OscarHi donmellado
Welcome to the forum.
Just go:
+Menu > File > Print > Layout > Pages per sheet: 2+
Don't rotate the sheet or specify a reduction size, this is not necessary, the Mac will work it all out for you.
