PDF Print - Pages per sheet

Post by jan.grosse »

Hello together,

I have a problem with the printing of multiple pages per sheet.

Normally we choose 2 on 1 and set then the option "Auto-rotate page in cell".
With the version 2.5 Build 199 it works without problems.

With version 2.5 Build 203 I have to choose "Custom" and 1 by 2 to get the right result. Is this correct or a bug?
My understanding of this feature is:

2 pages on 1 sheet -> 2 by 1 --> is not working

1 page on 2 sheet --> ... I don´t know when this is needed


Best regards
Jan

Hello Jan,

In build 194 we did change the logic for "Multiple pages per sheet" due to this problem:
https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... 35&t=10570

But I am not aware of any changes between 199 and 203.

Have you e.g. changed the paper orientation in your printer's settings that could be causing such an issue?
If you were printing on Landscape paper before, and are now printing on Portrait - 2 by 1 will try to fit two pages one next to the other on the horizontal of the sheet - and with a portrait oriented sheet of paper - this will result in 1/2 the sheet remaining empty.

Best,
Stefan
