Easily create n-up PDFs
Authored by: prash2anth on Sep 29, '04 02:14:15PM

You can also do this by changing the printing options. When you click on print, you see a tab called "Copies and Pages". In this tab, there is also something called "Layout". Under layout, you can select how many pages you would like to be placed in a single Letter or A4 sheet. Then click on save as PDF to get the same result.

I wanted a 3-up configuration, which is not allowed by Apple's layout panel. To get an arbitrary number of pages per print page, this was the quickest method I found.

Apple print window uses CUPS for every options, and the CUPS manual is quite clear :

CUPS supports 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 16-Up formats

The problem is you (or at least, me) get margins between the single pages into a sheet, margins that are way greater than what they would be with a single page per sheet.

Is there a way to remove additional margins ?
