I want to combine different pages as spread only on export. For expample: page 03 with page 07, side by side.

As my printscreen, I want do export as one spread page C3 with 7.

Is it possible? How?

Are you doing this for some sort of printer imposition or for another reason?

Thank you Dave.

Yes, printer imposition. I have 8 magazines like shown in the first post screenshot. But the printer wants the Cover file to be one spread with Last Cover (C1) and Cover (C2), and the verse spread to be Last Page (7) with page 2 (C3). I've already resolve this by moving the last page (7) paring with page 2 (C3) in all 8 documents. A lot of work.

Imposition should be done by printer - they know best how it should be done for their machines.

 

If they want you to do it - try to change printer.

You need to create a new document and place desired pages directly from the original INDD file. 

 

Or from exported PDF, but as it's a one-off print - placing INDD file directly will be quicker.

I apreciate your time. I'll try that. I was wondering if there was a way to set this in the Export PDF dialog.
