Printing help

Hello all, 

I am importing an HTML file to convert it to PDF. However, when the conversion is complete, the output appears on two pages, and I would like it to fit on a single page. Can someone please help me with this? Thank you!

Hi, @sargon_2625, you have extremely limited options because Acrobat is NOT a page layout application. You do have two options.

1) If your printer and/or your operating system supports this. When you go to print, find "Layout Options," and select two pages of copy per page of printing as shown below.

As you can see, if there is any open space on the page that normally could easily take up the extra onto the next page, it cannot be collapsed. That's it, but you do get it on one page.

 

The other option is to export the content to (say) a Word document, reconfigure the content to be on one page, and work with that. 

 

In either case, you are faced with the reality that Acrobat is not a page layout application. It is a digital printing of the original content with limited editing capability. And what you are asking for is beyond the editing capability of Acrobat.
