Multi-Page Layout

Place several pages of a PDF side by side on one sheet, the arrangement usually called N-up printing. Choose how many pages go on each sheet and the tool scales them down and lays them out in a grid. It is the standard way to cut the paper cost of printing slide handouts or a long draft you only need to read once.

How to put multiple pages on one sheet

  1. Upload the PDF you want to lay out.
  2. Choose how many pages to place on each sheet: 2, 3, 4, 9 or 16.
  3. Run the tool and download the new document, which will have roughly the original page count divided by that number.

Frequently asked questions

Will the text still be readable?

At 2 and 4 pages per sheet, ordinary body text generally stays comfortable to read. At 9 and especially 16 the result is best treated as a visual reference or a proof, not something to read closely.

Is this the same as booklet printing?

No. This lays pages out in reading order on each sheet. Booklet Imposition reorders them so the stack can be folded down the middle into a booklet, which needs a quite different page sequence.

Does it change the paper size?

The sheet keeps the original page dimensions and the individual pages are scaled to fit within it, so a document of A4 pages produces A4 sheets holding several reduced pages each.
