Fix CS3's Print Booklet !!

Ian,

What problem are you having? Do you not have a virtual PDF printer available? Printing PDF booklets is one of the easier things to do with Print Booklet, and one I recommend all the time to people who want to print only ranges or need to manually duplex.

I have just bought CS3 with my first Mac and am absolutely gobsmacked that I cannot make PDF booklets from InDesign CS3. I have recently migrated from a pc and Microsoft Publisher, I feel really cheated by Adobe.
I am glad Adobe QA are reading these posts - perhaps the message will get back.

Hi Dave
It's good to see you still frequent the message boards and make such a useful contribution. It is years since I last visited.
The loss to Quark of InBooklet brought me running on back to the boards and like a star you have a fix!
Thank you and keep up the good work.
Message to Noida I hope Adobe are working on this and that your next one line post as a QA contains no typos!

Hi Dave Hi work for Quality Assurance Team in print and publishing dept of Adobe

Which script?

Where did you put the script file?

Dave

Dave-
My IS team just installed CS3 and couldn't get your script to show up in the scripts folder inside ID. Is there something else we need to do to make it accessible to the program?
We're running XP.
thanks,
Elizabeth

Dave-
I'm just having CS3 installed today and was frantic to find that I can't do the "build booklet" number and save as a new file. I make monthly conference program booklets and use that functionality all the time (e-mailing the PDF of the doc to copy center).
I have read through all of these postings and will try all of the offered solutions.
Thanks to all for posting them -- and I hope Adobe gets on the stick and comes up with a fix ASAP.

noida singh,

Your message has the ring of being written by someone employed by Adobe. Is that indeed the case? If so, I'm pleased to see you here, but when you are speaking for your department at Adobe (as you seem to be in this message), could you add some kind of identifying line to make it clear (a) that you are an Adobe employee and (b) which department you work in -- at least generically.

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Connie,
We are already aware of one of the problem where the exporting Transparent psd files to pdf doesnt work properly from indesign and the problem has been made known to the concerned person to fix it.In meanwhile can you please share some of the psd files you are experiencing problem with while exporting so that we can make sure that the problem is no different,
thanks,
Singh

Try Booklet CE, a script for Mac & Windows that creates a new imposed InDesign document from your original document. It does creep even. $10 fully functional shareware. http://products.carlsenenterprises.com/
Let me know if you have any problem with it. [And you might want to submit an Adobe InDesign bug report -- this bug doesn't sound familiar.]
