BryanReed Posted June 2, 2024 Posted June 2, 2024 Hi there, I publish a bi-monthly magazine but I am struggling with printing a single picture across the two centre pages. If I select; Document Setup > Model > Facing Pages is ticked I can see the single photo across the two pages when I print the magazine as a pdf file. However, this is a physical printed magazine and the printers insist that I send the file to them with the Facing Pages option unticked – as in, Single Pages – and when I do this the portion of the picture that is on the right page disappears. Other than physically crop the photo into two sections, is there a way I can overcome this issue? Is it a case of simple changing some setting? Help, it's doing my head in! I have attached a couple of pdf files for reference TestA4Facing.pdf TestA4Single.pdf Quote
Hangman Posted June 2, 2024 Posted June 2, 2024 Hi @BryanReed, Rather than unchecking 'Facing Pages', leave your document setup as it is but export your file using 'All Pages' instead of 'All Spreads'. This should give you what you're looking for. Let us know if that works.
