Do you have a presentation that would look great as a booklet? Do you have a set of designs that when put together makes a great flip book? You may just have a large report that you want to make more readable.

Here is how you can print a Multipage document as a booklet. Acrobat Reader lays out the pages, two per sheet. When you collate, fold and staple the double sided sheets the result is a single book with the correct page order.

The ezeep app must be installed on the machine and using through the Adobe app to print
