Eight-page booklets · free · no login
Turn eight PDF pages into a foldable booklet.

1. Choose a supported PDF
Maximum 2 MiB (2,097,152 bytes). Exactly eight portrait US Letter pages, each 612 × 792 PDF points at origin 0,0, with no page rotation, normal page scale and full-page media, crop, bleed, trim and art boxes. Encrypted PDFs, cropped pages, annotations (including links), form fields, optional layers and transparency groups are refused. The whole input must pass; nothing is silently removed to make it fit.
In Google Docs, use Pages format with Letter paper and portrait orientation. Check that the document has exactly eight pages, then choose File → Download → PDF Document (.pdf). Review the exported PDF before selecting it here.
The example contains eight numbered fictional pages. Changes in example mode remain sample use, including selecting another PDF. Choose “Start with your own PDF” to reset first.

3. Print one test copy, then fold and assemble
- Open the downloaded PDF in a PDF viewer. Choose US Letter, landscape, actual size / 100%, one PDF page per sheet side. The PDF is already arranged for a booklet; leave the viewer’s Booklet and multiple-pages-per-sheet modes off.
- Print a test copy double-sided, flipping on the short edge. For manual duplex, print the first and third sides, then reinsert the sheets to print the second and fourth on their backs. Feed direction, face orientation and output order depend on your printer; use its manual and test before printing more.
- Check that pages 8 / 1 have 2 / 7 on the back, and 6 / 3 have 4 / 5 on the back, with every page upright. Stop and adjust the printer settings or reinsertion if either check fails.
- Fold both sheets in half. Nest the sheet containing pages 3–6 inside the sheet containing 1, 2, 7 and 8, then staple along the fold. Check that the assembled booklet reads 1 through 8 in order before making more copies.
This tool does not print or check a physical copy. Other page counts, paper sizes, covers, bleed, binding compensation and printer-specific feed calibration need a different workflow.
