In my case this seems not to be a question of versioning of AR but rather a collection of the right tools to work on the printed files. The way I'm printing A4 pages on A3 sheets to be folded as a simple newspaper is this: 1. Make a pdf from your Scribus document (PDF 1.4 required) 2. Load the pdf into AR and let it print to kprinter using PS level 3 This will produce a file named print.ps for example. Then in a shell I type psbook print.ps printb.ps psnup -2 -Pa4 -pa3 printb.ps printp.ps I now have the A4 document spread on the A3 pages and will print the beast via kprinter printp.ps switching it to A3 portrait (!) and duplexing over the small edge A long time ago someone here on the list gave me the tip with psbook and psnup. Maybe this is a way to do what you want? I recently saw that it should be possible to define a filter setting for kprinter to include the psbook and psnup programs. Rolf
