    Default Re: Printing two pages side-by-side

    ah sorry, misunderstood - I am pretty sure acrobat will do that if not reader as mike said; but not something I have experience of directly

    OK Acrobat it is. [ X ] Multiple [ X ] 2 by 1

    prints two pages on one sheet, side-by-side at almost 100%. Close enough.

    Gary,

    What I do is in Xara under the print window I select options and under the layout tab I select Multiple fit and rows=1 Columns=2

    Ray, when I try these settings it prints the same page twice on the sheet. What am I missing here?

    Acrobat did the job but even with the Save Ink/Toner option it was very very slow.

    Gary,

    I forgot that Xara does not treat this as two separate pages.

    I retested and under the options I used automatic fit. The way I got this to work was from the print widow I selected printer and under the printer properties I can select multi page and then I selected 2-UP. You would have to check if your printer has this as one of its properties.

    Ray
