Use Your Mac To Create Booklet Sized PDFs. Free.

BookletIt would not be a Friday if we couldn’t come up with another nifty utility for your Mac, right? Friday Freebie is here for a reason.

You know that OS X does PDF documents, both printing and reading. Add a handy utility to print booklets in PDF format.

Big whoop, right? Surprisingly, many Mac users don’t know that Mac OS X also saves documents as PDF files. It’s easy, but there are limitations.

Click on the File menu in Safari. Then select Print at the bottom of the menu. What you get is the standard printer dialog.... (excerpted).

I had hoped you were my solution to printing Booklets from my iMac G5 via my new Epson TX800FW with auto-duplexer. Everything works fine up to the point of output, then — according to your text, ‘All you need to do is get ready to print, but use the new export command instead. Life is good.’ Hmmm. I can find no ‘new export command’ and the double sided function for my printer has been turned off.
Three questions.
1. Is there a glitch in the program?
2. Is this peculiar to my printer?
3. Am I missing something?
Best regards .... Alan.
