Prepare multiple PDFs for an ordered print job
- Add PDFs, arrange their order and choose pages or rotate a source page.
- Choose Original sizes, Everyday A4, Double-sided documents or 2-up handouts; adjust paper and layout as needed.
- Set copies for planning and check the front/back sheet plan, including any separators and blank padding.
- Use Live print preview while editing; prepare the complete PDF for final review, then match the printer instructions in your viewer before printing a test sheet.
Formats, output and limits
Input: PDFs. Output: one copy of the prepared PDF. Original sizes preserves source dimensions, with A4 separators/padding. A4, A3, Letter and Legal layouts fit pages proportionally with 0–30 mm margins and 1, 2 or 4 pages per side. Copies (1–999) and sheet counts are planning only; choose actual copies, colour, paper tray and duplex in the viewer. Up to 500 input and output PDF pages, 50 files and 100 MiB input/output. Flatten interactive forms and printable annotations before preparing the job; unsupported items are rejected so their visible content is not silently lost.
A worked example
With 3-page and 2-page documents at 1 page per side, the normal output has 5 pages. Select Double-sided and Start each document on a new sheet to insert one blank at PDF page 4; the second document starts on page 5. Total output is 6 pages, with no trailing blank.
Common questions
Does the tool print automatically?
No. It prepares a PDF. Choose printer, paper, scaling, copies and duplex in your PDF viewer or system dialog. The app cannot verify physical print success.
Can I select only some pages?
Yes. Use ranges such as 1-3,5,8-10. Reversed, out-of-bounds, empty or repeated page selections are rejected.
Why was a blank page added?
With Double-sided selected, new-sheet mode starts each document group on a front side. Separators occupy a whole side. Blank padding remains blank, and no unnecessary trailing page is added. Enable duplex yourself in the print dialog. For handouts, use 1 PDF page per side at the printer because the layout is already applied.
