Affinity Publisher impositioning?

[oldwestern 2]

Hi, I used to use PagePlus on my PC to create multipage A5 centre stapled booklets printed via my Desktop printer on A4 paper. PagePlus would create imposition PDF files that I could then save or print to produce the booklets. PagePlus's ability to sort the pages into order - including putting the front page and back page together made life a dream.

I can't see how to end up with the same result  using Affinity Publisher on my iMac.

Can anyone help?

Thanks, Hal.

See: Designer Export multipage pdf???

Further the upcoming (actually in beta) Publisher version might be better suited for these tasks and then probably do resemble PagePlus better here than Affinity Designer.

So sorry v-kyr,

I was wrong to say Designer - it was the latest version of Publisher that I used.

I've edited the original post and corrected my error.

Just so you know, discussions of Publisher should take place in the separate group of Publisher forums. Possibly one of the moderators will move this when they notice it

At this point, Publisher can print booklets, but I don't think it provides the ability to export a PDF already imposed as a booklet. You might be able to use a Print to PDF driver, though, to create one while telling Publisher to print a booklet.

Thanks Walt Farell, I’ll repost in the appropriate group.
