Can't print all pages in a booklet.

New Here ,
May 30, 2018 May 30, 2018

I'm trying to print a 174 page document in a booklet. It was originally saved with two pages per sheet which didn't allow for booklet printing.  I manually cropped each page and then manually put document back together with all pages in order.  Now, it only prints the even pages in the booklet.

 

I have tried saving it again and reopening it.  I have tried selecting all pages then print selection.  I have tried saying print all.  All pages print when full size.  Random odd pages print when printing multiple pages per sheet. All pages always show up in print preview box.  Only even pages print   I'm at a loss. Please help.

Could I have messed something up in the cropping/pasting process?

If the pages look good in Acrobat, I would assume that they should print correctly. What type of printer do you have? What is the format that is sent to your printer (PCL, PostScript, PDF, ...)? What operating system are you using, and what version of Acrobat?

You could try the print as image...

As for your options in Acrobat, you only have this:

You have the front/back setting for a booklet.

But that's all.

May be you could try your manipulation with a second file. A few pages should be sufficient.

This is a printer that supports PDF directly, so you are probably not using a driver, but a downloader (which may hide behind a driver user interface). If you are sending the PDF to the printer (and not PostScript or PCL that is generated by your printer driver), then all problems with that print job are due to problems on the printer with handling the PDF correctly. You need to talk to the printer manufacturer's technical support to find out if there is anything they can do to make this work. As an alternative, the printer also supports PCL5/PCL6 and PostScript via a printer driver, I would install one of these drivers, and then print via the driver. In this case, the printer will never see the PDF document, so any problems it has with processing this type of document will no longer affect the print output.
