A practical guide

PDF Viewer Settings: a worked example

  1. Choose a PDF and read the existing preferences.
  2. Choose only settings to change; for an imposed booklet, try actual size and short-edge duplex.
  3. Run the task, review the result and save it if needed.

Try this example

For an already imposed booklet, choose Actual size and Two sided; flip short edge. Save, download, then verify settings in your PDF viewer and print a test sheet. This does not impose booklet pages or guarantee printer behavior. Original scripts, actions and other document data are not sanitized.
