10 years later, STILL very helpful. I almost gave up on "facing pages" and just layout my booklet in a letter with two columns until I found this video. Thank you so much!
THANK YOU LADY!!!!! You saved my curiosity on how to properly make a Book/Magazine. I have a BA in Graphic Design as of Dec.21 2013 and I wish you were my Indesign teacher lol. This was the only thing that was of my curiosity on how the pages match up! I think I love you! Now to apply for this job! You saved my life!
Great tutorial. Concise. And thank you for not starting with "First we need to create a document in inDesign and on and on...". You get to the point and stay on topic. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the help! Tip: Everyone on a mac with adobe CC - if you cant find distiller, right click the Postscript file > Open With > and it should come up
8 years on and this video is still helping the community. Thank you for such a clear and detailed video. All went well with the project until mid-printing I ran out of ink and had to stop the printer after 121. Now when I tried to print the balance pages, choosing print/range from 121 to 282, the pagination gets completely distorted, i.e ID considers page 121 as the "cover" and wants to print the back cover behind 121. Do you have a solution for this please? Is there a way to make ID print the booklet in the same page order within a page range? Your help is appreciated.
Hi, Just saw your video....thank you for this. I'm using a Mac and when I save my booklet using postscript the ps (covered to pdf) document come out as in the vertical A4 instead of the landscape A4. I've tried changing settings, and it just doesn't seem to work. Could you help me with this?
Thank you very much :) You taught me what I needed to know very fast and went into detail about things I needed to do like save text as outlines by creating a preset - great job
Hi! I'm on an iMac, running InDesign CC and am trying to get my booklet into pdf form so I can have it printed somewhere(Staples, etc. because I don't have a printer and my school printer isn't capable) else. I can't find Adobe Distiller online, so I looked around and saw that I can do this through the Preview App. When I create a pdf of it, they appear as single individual pages rather than side by side pages. Viewing the pdf in 'two page' made shows that the pages are still in the correct order that I would like for them to be printed, but will they print side by side(and front and back) in that order (on a single sheet of paper)? I'm concerned that viewing the document in 'two page' mode is merely for preference of viewing than purpose of printing. Your video was extremely helpful in figuring this out, thank you so much!
Xchovenei If you have a CC subscription, Distiller should be available to download from Adobe Manager. If your printer knows what they are doing, they can arrange your current PDF to print what you need for a back to back booklet, but that might not be the case for Staples. Essentially what Print to Booklet does is put your individual pages into one printable sheet in the order you want. For example, a 6x9 booklet actually is 12x9 flat and the actual pages are not in order in the way you design them. Take two regular sheets of paper, fold them like a booklet and number each page 1-8 and you'll see what I mean. These spreads are what you printer needs to print the booklet in the right order. If you don't have Distiller, you can design your booklet the old fashioned way which means you design in the booklet order on full spreads (like the paper mockup) versus on 1-8 individual pages in your document. I think a video on this alternate method would be ideal!
Perfect. Thank you. You and Distiller has saved me. I don't suppose you could help with another issue I am having. My 'Print Adobe PDF' option from the print menu isn't working. Any idea why this could be?
Great Video!!! Ok, I managed to "print" my 88-page booklet using "Print Booklet" to a pdf file, but the pages in the pdf file are all cut off. I have re-done this 8 times now and I can't figure out why the paper size isn't matching up. It looks good in the "Print Booklet" preview, but then it's wrong in the pdf file. Any idea why? TIA.
Thank you for making this video! I only have one question and is about the printing on both pages, I don't see an option on the print settings for this, or is it automatic? thanks in advance!!
You're welcome! That is a setting specific to your printer. If your printer doesn't have double sided printing then you won't see this option. I was making in house booklets on a copy machine so that is where this came in handy most!
Great Tutorial, Is there a way to arrange the pages correctly without adding in a blank page? If my pages included a bleed, would it make the process difficult? I want to start creating CD booklets with saddle stitch.
Can you please tell me how to do this but printing in multiple signatures! I'm making a book and the paper is thick and I can only do signatures with no more than 4 sheets of paper. I am doing a hard cover book so my file won't be the actual covers of the book plus I'm doing multiple signatures
Hey! thank you very much for your tutorial. Now, what if I have Mac and I don't have that PDF option? How can I get that? I have already tried with the Postcript option, and then converting it on the Distiller, but this cuts me a part of the page. Thank you!!
Thank you for the turorial very well explained. I have a question regarding setting up full bleed images as part of a booklet, it seems that when I send the booklet to print I get a white space between pages, how could I fix this? I would appreciate the feedback.
I really appreciate your youtube tutorial on creating a booklet in InDesign. If I wanted to make the pages staggered, would the process be similar to how its presented in the tutorial? I use a Mac and am not sure if I can use the booklet feature in InDesign if its staggered. Thanks.
Thank you very much for this tutorial. But I still struggle with an issue "multiple page sizes". But I have no idea why. because I use just one size of page. And in this case I can't print a booklet. Would you know what to do with that? I've double checked my document setup and all sizes of pages. Thank you again!
Hi! I had a question! For my class, I need to print a booklet. However, my question is how do you rearrange the order of pages in the print? For example, for my project I need page 1 and page 2 one the same spread next to eachother. Thanks again! Wonderful video!
Print to booklet takes pages you design in order and places them in the correct layout order if you print your booklet in house/double-sided then sold the stack in half.
No, the video shows you how to do this with your existing document. Design the pages on the order you want. When you print to booklet you will see a preview of the spreads. You can change the page order around in the pages panel if you don't like something.
It is nice and organized when you have elements within individual pages. Question is how do you deal with graphics that stretch the span of TWO pages? For example, a two page advert with a wide image. This will surely confuse InDesign's Print to Booklet feature.
Redbird Not at all. You would build your spread as you normally would and have the image fill where you want it to go. Don't split it up, actually size it to fill the desired space. InDesign creates the full spread just as it normally would when items are neatly on their own pages. Actually this method lines up spreads better for publications over individual PDFs for each page (common for magazine press productions). Since the pages aren't technically separated from the sheet/spread, the fold line is irrelevant at not lining up the image on both sides of the spread. Of course this all comes down to how your printer operates though. I've worked in both situations but more commonly with individual pages as PDFs. The image spanning both spreads is never 100% perfectly lined up in that case. Thanks for watching!
What paper size did you put on the Indesign because my said warning the booklet doesn’t fit the current paper size. Click print settings to specify a larger paper size or to scale the booklet to fit.
girl you literally saved me HOURS UPON HOURS of going back and forth checking if everything matches, this is a godsent video. I dont understand why they didn't show us this video day 1 in typography course, it boggles my mind...
Hi your video was pretty helpful although I don't know why no matter what I do the pages aren't ever aligning next to each other. eg 5-6,6-7 instead they go like 1-36, 3-34 etc. Please help I don't know where am I going wrong?
Thanks for the great tute. One thing that seems tricky for me is to have my back cover line up on the correct page. I always seem to end up with a blank page on the back cover rather than what I want.
+Bill Lang Just to clear that up - the back page is back page is blank and the image ends up on page 34 - even when I add empty pages on he end of the book. (It is a 36 pager with content only to page 33. The back cover should effectively be p 36
Hi, I'm really learning with your tutorials. Let me ask you a question. After I checked all the settings to print it doesn't create a pdf to print later, what should I do? I have a PC. TIA
I have gain so much knowledge from this tutorial but I have a one confusion. You learnt that if you save pdf in booklet on pc then you can save (4X6 booklet default) and I will save pdf on mac I can change only (4X6 booklet default) into (postscript) file ? And other settings is remain same?
I did not use Indesign before for Printing, I use illustrator make custom bleeds and other methods for Booklet printing. But Indesign just make it more easier.
hi at the booklet type options, which one is the option where the book is "stiched with thread" not glue, not staples.. or it doesnt matter, just choose one option..?? THX
I am trying to make a booklet from my 8.5 x 11 inch sheet into four pages on a side, say 5.5 high by roughly 3.75 wide, printed on both sides. I have tried maybe 20 times and can’t figure it out. I want to make sure the margin on the left is only .5 inches or less and not to wide from the spine. I have a paper trimmer so I can trim on the right edge. I would kindly appreciate any help you have. The book is approximately 36 or 40 pages. Most sincerely Gene
You can send me the document you are trying to print to nicki@digitalhartmedia.com and I can look at your setup and suggest solutions from there. With the pages smaller than the sheet and the ability to trim, I'm guessing you are having trouble lining it all up correctly to fold when printing double-sided. It's much easier when you are filling the entire page size you have but I can look at the document you have now and see what settings you need to tweak.
Hi I am struggling to have a booklet with no borders or white space at all sides, each time i take out a print booklet it comes out with white borders as the printer doesn't give a borderless print, Is there any way to get a borderless print booklet....Thanks Jo
Hi, thanks for the tutorial. I have an issue with a magazine project I’m working on. This magazine is 48 pages (covers included) and its gonna be bound with staples so I need to leave a creep, so I go to print booklet and set the value. The covers are black (front and back) and when I export to PDF it makes a white line between the front and back of the covers and I don’t want that. Do you know how can I solve this? Thanks in advance
It would be grateful if you create and upload a video related to table of contents like how to create, tabs, chapter title, etc. Please try to make a video on this.
How do you print to your own printer? I have a booklet that's 5.5 x 8.5 so it can print 2 up on a letter page and I can't get it to print to my own printer double sided. I have tried 3 printers and they only come out single sided. Any suggestions?
I have a question about printing a booklet I have made a book but the pages are from 1-100 in order but I want to print A3 because I want to use stitch. In indesign the A3.
Dear sir ., first i would like to thank you for your Exertion and your Excellent channel.. i am a designer tray to learn Adobe Indesign because i used the corel draw from 6 years and i found that indesign very easy to design the layout book and magazine so i already learned it and how to use all tools .. but i need some technical way how to finish the job as professional designer ... so my question is what the technical way for design magazine or 4 color book which Consists of many pages and cover with big spine like ( Jacket cover with text name in the center) as u Explained.. can make the inside pages and the cover and ( Inside Back Cover ) in same file ?? to be easy when i print book with booklet option OR must make the Cover and inside back cover in separate file . and if i can make it in same file how to print this case with booklet option with Different size page ( Montage Facing Page ) to send it ready to printing press
Thank you for this helpful tutorial. I have a 52 page book i would like to print as a booklet. when I print the booklet on an HP8600, which allows for duplex printing, the back side is printed upside down. Can you help me resolve this issue? Thank you for any (more) help with printing my booklet.
This usually has to do with the binding setting on your printer. You usually have an option to bind on the left or top. This setting is somewhere in your print settings when you go to print. It's different for each printer. Try swapping this setting and see if it prints correctly.
How would you print on a machine that doesn't duplex? Is there a way to tell it to one set and then rerun it printing the pages it missed the first time around?
so I want to print it in this way, but at my school we cannot print right from the computer. we have to upload the pdf file and then print it. if do this whole process it wont safe the pdf because it says that the printer wont work. so how can I avoid using the printing option but still use this way for making the magazine in a pdf file where the pages match.
Hi I'm having trouble understanding the apart where you create the cover, in other tutorials It's recommended to create an alternate document with it being slightly larger by a .25? Should I do that or will I be fine with my initial settings for my layout?
I usually don't need to create an additional document for my booklet covers, but I can see you would need to if you have a lot of pages. The extra .25" adds more room on the fold line for more pages. When in doubt ask your printer what they prefer.
Is it industry standard to put the cover on Page one and the back cover to last page? I was seeing others make a larger spread that included the entire cover with spine included. But I'm new to InDesign and I might just delete that part for now, because I think it's throwing everything off.
In the case of this tutorial, the booklet including covers would be printed on the same paper and saddle stitched. No need for a separate cover design unless you are binding in a way that requires a spine.
I worry about that too, I always having trouble finisNice tutorialng anytNice tutorialng I try and create, but I figure if I do a little more each day, it'll get there one
When i pressed print it didnt make a pdf cause i dont have that setting of Printer:Adobe PDF and dont know how you get is. it immediatly printed is but not double sided

8 years on and this video is still helping the community. Thank you for such a clear and detailed video. All went well with the project until mid-printing I ran out of ink and had to stop the printer after 121. Now when I tried to print the balance pages, choosing print/range from 121 to 282, the pagination gets completely distorted, i.e ID considers page 121 as the "cover" and wants to print the back cover behind 121. Do you have a solution for this please? Is there a way to make ID print the booklet in the same page order within a page range? Your help is appreciated.

Thank you for this helpful tutorial. I have a 52 page book i would like to print as a booklet. when I print the booklet on an HP8600, which allows for duplex printing, the back side is printed upside down. Can you help me resolve this issue? Thank you for any (more) help with printing my booklet.
This usually has to do with the binding setting on your printer. You usually have an option to bind on the left or top. This setting is somewhere in your print settings when you go to print. It's different for each printer. Try swapping this setting and see if it prints correctly.
8:14, best part of the tutorial!!! I'm going to create a few blank plages now...
Thank you so much! really made my life a lot easier!!
Super! Thanks for watching!
How would you print on a machine that doesn't duplex? Is there a way to tell it to one set and then rerun it printing the pages it missed the first time around?
so I want to print it in this way, but at my school we cannot print right from the computer. we have to upload the pdf file and then print it. if do this whole process it wont safe the pdf because it says that the printer wont work. so how can I avoid using the printing option but still use this way for making the magazine in a pdf file where the pages match.
WOW YOU ARE BLESSED
Awesome! =D
What is the document size in millimeters? TY
A 4x6 inch booklet would be 102 x 152mm.
I study graphic design in Brazil. Tomorrow will hold an academic activity. Can I use your layout as an example? Thank you for saving my life. :)
Hi! If i have a basic printer that only print single sides. How do i print out my booklet?
hey! i want to bind my booklet myself but i have too many pages to bind it into only one section. is it possible to create multiple sections?
Hi
I'm having trouble understanding the apart where you create the cover, in other tutorials It's recommended to create an alternate document with it being slightly larger by a .25? Should I do that or will I be fine with my initial settings for my layout?
I usually don't need to create an additional document for my booklet covers, but I can see you would need to if you have a lot of pages. The extra .25" adds more room on the fold line for more pages. When in doubt ask your printer what they prefer.
Is it industry standard to put the cover on Page one and the back cover to last page? I was seeing others make a larger spread that included the entire cover with spine included. But I'm new to InDesign and I might just delete that part for now, because I think it's throwing everything off.
In the case of this tutorial, the booklet including covers would be printed on the same paper and saddle stitched. No need for a separate cover design unless you are binding in a way that requires a spine.
Did you explain about how to booklet print using Mac? or I was not paying attention? I print to PDF but I don't know where my file goes
