BOOKLET PRINT PLANNER
Duplex & manual printing
Download the imposed PDF, then print it in ordinary one-page-per-side mode on landscape sheets. Do not apply another booklet or two-up setting. Use actual size or 100% on matching paper. Short-edge duplex is the usual starting point for landscape booklet sheets, but test your printer driver before a full run.
How it works
For manual duplex, print the fronts file first, then reload the stack according to your printer instructions and print the backs file. Face-up and face-down output trays can change the required stack order. The reverse-backs option changes only the separate backs file. Back rotation applies to both combined and separate outputs. Use the 8-page fold test to find the correct settings.

Booklet page order
A folded sheet has four booklet pages: two on the front and two on the back. The planner pads the selected pages to a multiple of four with blanks at the end. Blank panels are intentional; they do not delete or repeat your source pages.

↗03Signatures, sizing & margins
One folded booklet treats all selected pages as one nested section. Smaller signatures split the selection into independent sections of 8, 16, 24 or 32 pages, padding the final section if needed. Keep signatures separate while folding and assembling; they are not one continuous nested stack.
