Tags: #printing #layout #book #cs6

Hi All!

I have a 36 pages brochure in A6 (148mmx105mm) size. I would like to printing this in booklet but to an A3 (420mmx297mm)paper for press. An A3 page could have 4 A5 (210mmx148mm) (the double size of A6). I would like to create a booklet pdf file with croping signs which paper is B3 size (320mmx450mm) with 8 pages.

Can anyone help me?

Thnaks a lot

Bye

Are you the printer? If not, did he ask you to do this?

Imposition is the printer's responsibility and you should not be sending an imposed file to print.

You don't have some sort of imposition software that you normally use?

Print Booklet has a Perfect Bound option that can give you 4-up pages (8 page signatures), but it isn't clear if that's waht you want, or if you want two 2-up pages that are the same that you will split. We need a lot more info, and you need to understand that Print Booklet is not designed for professional impostion. It's there to allow users to do simple booklets on their office printers.
