    Custom 'pages per sheet'

    Hello,

    Is there a way with windows / adobe to custom print pages per sheet, ie:

    1. First two pages are 1 page per sheet, double sided
    2. Remainder of document is 2 pages per sheet, double sided.

    Ideas?

    Doing it manually takes an age.

    When you say manually, you mean sending as two separate print jobs? Surely it can't take that long?

    Is this in MS Word? VBA macro would be trivial.

    Just record printing the first two pages how you want as one macro.

    Record another printing the rest how you want.

    Create a button which calls the two macros you've recorded.

    Simples!
    throw new ArgumentException (String, String, Exception)

    Depends how many times per day i have to do this!! And also separate print jobs can get separated during 'peak hours'

    It's adobe or nitroprint, any similar solution?
