	In this example ~~the~~ file has a total of 24 pages.<br><br>		You can print a booklet also from Acrobat. This disadvantage is that pages will not touch each other in the spine, but there will be a gap. So only do this when there are no full page photo's in your design.<br>
			In Indesign you will not have this gap.<br>

			In this example you print directly from InDesign. This file has a total of 24 pages.<br><br>
