Troubleshooting booklet printing
Note these issues to address when printing booklets.
Unfortunately, you can’t create a new InDesign document with the imposed pages. You can print the imposed
document or create a PDF.
You may add blank pages in the middle of a document to make sure there are enough pages for each printer spread.
However, if these pages contain no text or objects, they may not be recognized, and additional blank pages are added at the end of the document.
To make sure that the blank pages you added are included in the imposed document, click Print Settings in the Print Booklet dialog box, and then
select Print Blank Pages and click OK.
Use the Odd Pages Only and Even Pages Only options in either Adobe Acrobat or
InDesign. After one set is printed, flip over the pages, load it in the printer, and print the rest of the pages. For best results, print a test document
to see which direction and order the pages should be added to the printer.
