Fix CS3's Print Booklet !!

Hi Rbert,

You've helped in the past and I hope to possibly get an answer for a footnote query.

Is there any trick to CS2 InDesign to restart numbering of footnotes within a Section. I inherited a project that is one InDesign, 600 page document that needs footnotes to start renumbering within. I told the Author it probably can't be done since it was set up as a huge doc. I know he footnote feature would work if they were brken down but I'm stuck with fixing manually at this point. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

It sounds like your document might not be in Facing Pages mode. Email me privately (stephen at carlsenenterprises dot com) and we can pursue it further.

I downloaded Booklet CE 3., but when I try to use it, all I get is 40 spreads all with page 1 on them. I must be doing something really stupid.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks BusinessCards CE serves my purpose. I just try this script with InDesign CS3 and it works like a charm. Perhaps you should have named it N-UP Utility :-? Just a thought...

Thanks,
Greg

Actually, yes. My other posted script, BusinessCards CE, should do what you want. BusinessCards CE essentially just does a fancy step-and-repeat of a page onto a new, larger page, with any number of rows and columns. There are no restrictions on the size of the original page -- in particular, it doesn't have to be Business Card sized. You probably just want 1 row and 2 columns. If you want printer marks, gaps between pages, etc, those are options, too.

Hi Stephen,

I downloaded and installed your "Booklet CE script" and didn't see any options for n-up printing of the same page. Any ideas?

Hi Peter,

Yes, I would like to print 2-up of the same page of a multi-page document. It would seem Step & Repeat would be the ideal choice but I would like it to happen auto-magically. :-)

Thanks,
Greg

Try the Booklet CE script, http://products.carlsenenterprises.com. And let me know if you have any problems with it.

Greg,

Re you talking about printing 2-up of the same page, or two consecutive pages, or two imposed pages?

PrintBooklet, and the scripts already mentioned can handle imposed and/or consecutive 2-up. For n-up of the same image I place a single copy on the larger page size and use step & repeat to add and position as many more as I need (You need two passes to do multiple columns and multiple rows on the same sheet). I'm sure it could be scripted to do two-up for a multipage document, but I don't have one. If you search the regular ID forum, not here in Feature requests, or ask in the scripting forum you may find someone has already posted or will write one.

Hi,

Not sure if this post was covered here or belongs in this forum or not but here goes... Is there a script written to do "n-up" pages using CS3? I need to print several 8.5"X11" pages 2-up on 11"X17". Thanks in advance for your assistance.
