How it works

Booklet page counts must be multiples of four. Sheets are nested with sheet 1 on the outside. Print duplex and flip on the short edge for most printers, then fold and staple through the centre.

Frequently asked questions

What if my page count is not a multiple of 4?
Add blank pages (often at the end, before the back cover) until it is.
