Print multiple pages on sheet

I am using Adobe Reader and would like to print two copies of the same document on the same sheet. It doesn't seem to allow me to do that no matter what settings I put in the print dialog box or the printer driver. I have told it "2 up" and the paper size is 18 x 12, the document itself is 8.5 x 11 so there should be plenty of room. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

    Correct answer

    As per my understanding of your problem, you have a one page PDF and you need to print 100 copies of the same page with page scaling of Multiple Pages per sheet.

    If this is the problem then this can't be achieved using combination of Copies and Multiple Pages per sheet feature.

    Hi AremisBree,

    Try the following steps:

    1. Launch the print dialog.

    2. Select the Page scaling as "Multiple Pages Per sheet"

    3. Choose "Custom" in "Pages Per sheet" and write 1 by 2 as the value.

    I hope this will resolve the issue at your end.

    Thanks,

    Thanks Shilpi,

    It didn't work. The preview still shows copy 1 on the far left side of the page with plenty of room on the right for copy 2 but even when I put to print 100 copies, it doesn't put two on a page. I guess the multiple pages per sheet only works with unique pages?
