PDF Booklet Maker: Print a Folded Booklet
Turn a PDF into a booklet: pages are rearranged two per side so that you print double-sided, fold the stack in half and read it in order. A4 or Letter.
What it does
A booklet is printed on sheets that are folded in half, so each side of a sheet holds two pages and the page order is mixed up on purpose: on an 8-page booklet the first side has pages 8 and 1. This tool does that arrangement for you, adds blank pages at the end so the total is a multiple of 4, and shrinks each page to fit half a sheet.
How to use it
- Choose the PDF.
- Choose the paper size, the binding edge and the margin.
- Create the booklet, print it double-sided flipping on the short edge, fold and staple.
Frequently asked questions
How do I print a booklet from a PDF?
Create the booklet here, then print it double-sided with the flip on short edge option. A 12-page document becomes 3 sheets; fold them together and staple on the fold.
Why were blank pages added?
Each folded sheet holds 4 pages, so the total must be a multiple of 4. A 10-page PDF gets 2 blank pages at the end, after the last page.
What paper size do I need for A5 booklets?
Print on A4: half an A4 sheet is A5, so with no margin A4 pages are reduced to about 71% and A5 pages print at full size.
