Hi all, my request is not related to Scribus but I know there are people here who can help me, and that's urgent: I need to print a flyer to distribute in a conference which takes place tomorrow.
I have both A4 and A5 .pdf files (1 page). I want to print two copies for each page, so 2 A5 flyers for each A4 paper. Unfortunately I've never found a printer shop who was able to do it.. These are the .pdf, just in case you want to try: http://fscons.org/helping Here's what I've done: * create a copy of the A5 .pdf * merge the two pdf in a two-page pdf file (A5) then I try to transform in A4 1 page: * either print to file with Okular --> but I get two pages, even though I've set landscape, no margins and two pages per sheet * or use the following commands: pdftk 1.pdf 2.pdf cat output 12.pdf pdf2ps 12.pdf psnup -l -Pa5 -pa4 -2 12.ps output.ps ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 output.ps output.pdf the imposition is correct but I get a poor quality output maybe the problem is with the ps conversion, in fact I get these warnings: **** Warning: Generation number out of 0..65535 range, assuming 0. **** Warning: Generation number out of 0..65535 range, assuming 0. **** Warning: File has an invalid xref entry: 1. Rebuilding xref table. **** This file had errors that were repaired or ignored. **** The file was produced by: **** >>>> iText 2.1.5 (by lowagie.com) <<<< **** Please notify the author of the software that produced this **** file that it does not conform to Adobe's published PDF **** specification. Can anybody help me? I'm sorry for the OT request, please let me know which could be the right place where asking such information.
