Will the text stay sharp?

Yes. Pages are placed as vector graphics, not converted to images, so text stays crisp at any zoom and when printed.

Why not just use my printer's pages-per-sheet setting?

That setting varies between printers and apps, and you cannot share it. This creates a normal PDF that prints the same everywhere and can be sent to a print shop.

How do I print the booklet?

Print double-sided and flip on the short edge. Then fold the whole stack in half and staple along the fold. The pages will read in order.

Can I put the same page on a sheet several times?

Not directly. Duplicate the page first with Organize PDF, then arrange it here.

No. The pages are arranged in your browser and the file never leaves your device.

Multiple PDF Pages per Sheet

Arrange 2, 4, 6, 9 or 16 pages on each sheet - or a custom grid - and download it as a new PDF that prints the same on any printer. Text stays sharp because pages are placed as vectors, not images.

Getting the layout right

How many pages per sheet?

2 or 4 per sheet keeps normal text readable.
6 works well for slides, which use large text.
9 and 16 per sheet are overviews - good for checking layout, too small for reading.

Printing a booklet

Booklet mode puts two pages on each side of a landscape sheet in the order needed for folding. Print double-sided, flipping on the short edge, then fold the stack in half and staple along the fold. Blank pages are added at the end if the page count is not a multiple of four.
