I'm working on a project that needs to create PDF files of
brochures. OOo seems to honor the brochure setting (Tools > Options,
OpenOffice.org Writer, Pages, Brochure) for direct printing, but not
for exporting to PDF. Am I missing something here? I've been using a
pseudo-printer (PrimoPDF) to get the file, but something has now
gone terribly wrong with that and I haven't figured it out yet. (I
suspect my system may be slowly dying, strange things are happening
frequently :-( )
Adobe Reader will print files saved as PDF as a brochure. I use this
all the time since brochure printing in OO.o 3 does not work on Macs
(Supposed to be fixed for OO.o 3.3).
I don't see any booklet support native in Adobe Reader (version 8.1.7
on Vista Home Premioum); it allows me to use my printer settings, but
none of the combinations ends up with what I want -- at least, I've
tried every which way and ended up with various unusable layouts. And
while I know our print service can deal with the side-by-side layout,
I don't know about other layouts....
I'm using version 9.2. The feature may be new in version 9. You can find
it in the print dialogue under "Page Scaling:".
