Hi all,

I am trying to save a PDF print version for a 6x9 (12x18 spread) saddle stitched booklet. I am SO CLOSE. Except I have to choose 11x17 Tabloid and scale to fit. However, I need it to be 17x11 and even though I click the change orientation icons, it still says and saves as 11x17. See my screen shots below:

Your captures are showing Postscript output, you need the Adobe PDF 9.0 PPD to correctly output postscript. This thread has the download link: https://community.adobe.com/t5/InDesign/InDesign-Print-Booklet-Only-half-pages-exporting/td-p/10713554

Looks like you want to print directly to the Epson. You should be able to change the Orientation to rotate the spread:

Hi,
No, I don't print in-house. I just had to make the "Epson" option on in order to change the items under setup and then other forums told me to change it to PostScript and then use Adobe Acrobat to turn the PS file into a PDF. Although that did not work.

Another user let me know I needed to get the Adobe PDF Preset and download and install a PPD folder and that worked. Thanks, though!

Export a PDF and use Acrobat's booklet feature to print it.
