📌 How it works:
1️⃣ Open a PDF to automatically reorder its pages for a folded booklet (saddle stitching).
2️⃣ Choose the finished booklet size (original / A4 / A5 / A6). Output pages are scaled and arranged automatically.
3️⃣ Each sheet has front and back sides. Print double-sided, then fold and bind the booklet.
4️⃣ If the page count is not a multiple of 4, blank pages are appended automatically.
5️⃣ When printing, select double-sided printing (flip on the short edge), then fold and bind the booklet.
⚠️ Bookmarks will not be preserved.

Frequently asked questions
Why are blank pages added?
