Export spreads in different order

[Leire de Asch]

Hi, I would like to export spreads in the order they need to be for printing.  In design has the feature and I was wondering if there's a way to do so, without having to arrange pages manually

Hi Leire de Asch,

Welcome to the forums

There is no way to change spread order on export I'm afraid. You will have to re arrange the spreads before exporting.

Thanks

As workaround you can use the available print option to impose the pages (not spreads) for book or booklet, and then, instead of printing them on paper, "print" the result to PDF. – Unfortunately this workaround offers less or none options regarding the PDF setting (color space, resolution, PDF-version).

On mac you find this option by system default in the lower left pulldown menu of the print options window, on Windows some users reported to have an according feature, too or are able to install a print-to-PDF driver. A search in the forum for "booklet" and/or "impos" (impose & imposition) will find topics with more detailed hints and screenshots of various print option windows, which may vary depending on your installed printer software.
