Make a Printable Booklet from a PDF
Reorder any PDF into printer spreads ready for saddle-stitch booklet printing. Each landscape sheet carries two pages side by side, and pages are paired so that after duplex printing, folding the stack in half, and stapling along the spine, every page falls into place. Documents are padded with blank pages to a multiple of four automatically. Print double-sided flipping on the short edge, fold, and staple — done. Imposition runs locally in your browser, so manuscripts and drafts stay private.

Frequently asked questions
How should I print the output file?
Use duplex printing with "flip on short edge" at 100% scale. Then fold all sheets together in half and staple along the fold for a finished booklet.
Why are there blank pages in my booklet?
A saddle-stitched booklet needs a page count divisible by four. The tool pads the end with blank pages automatically so the imposition lines up correctly.
Does each sheet really get two original pages?
Yes — every landscape sheet holds two scaled pages side by side, so one sheet of paper yields four booklet pages when folded.
