SamiK Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Hi! I'm struggling to find tool or option to make all Affinity publisher document pages shown as a spreads. First and last page are always shown individually. I've had message from offical affinity facebook page that this feature I suggested isn't included yet. This feature would help when making printable .pdf files for printing firms which are requiring every page to be shown as spread pair. (page 16-1 for example) Best Regards!

Joachim_L Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 You mean facing pages? Could be checked in Document Setup.

mac_heibu Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 No, he is thinking of a PDF output of an imposed document. This isn’t possible at the moment (just as it isn’t in InDesign). But there are many apps out there, which are build for this. One example: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can solve that easily by telling Publisher that the first page starts on the Left, rather than the default of on the Right: However, that will give you 1-2, 3-4, ..., 5-16, not the imposed version of 16-1 that you suggested you want.

Fixx Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Printing firms should do their own imposition. It is not a customer's job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
