Editing Printing booklets


{{Template:Quickstartguide}}

=== Printing a Single Signature ===
When printing a book made with folded paper, Indesign has the function to set pages in the right order. <br>
Please be aware that your document should have a total page count that is dividable by 4. <br>
This is because a single sheet of paper that is folded in half, has 4 pages on it. <br>

In this example the file has a total of 24 pages.<br><br>

1. Manually select the multi-purpose tray as paper source and chose your paper size.<br>
2. Instead of using the paper catalog, you use the '''media type menu''' to select the weight of your paper.<br><br>
For matt paper use the “heavy” settings, for glossy and coated paper use the “2-sided coated” settings. <br><br>
