How to make a booklet
- Choose your PDF. Pick the file with the button above or drag it onto the box.
- Pick your paper. A4 makes an A5 booklet; US Letter makes a half-letter booklet; A3 makes an A4 booklet.
- Make the booklet. FoxletPDF places two pages on each side of every sheet in booklet order, adding blank pages at the end if needed.
- Print and fold. Print double-sided with “flip on short edge”, fold the stack in half and staple along the fold.
Tips for booklets
- Page count. Booklets use multiples of four pages. FoxletPDF adds blank pages at the end to make it up.
- Thick booklets. More than about 12 sheets gets hard to fold; split long documents into several booklets.
- Test print first. Print the first two sides to check your printer's double-sided setting.
- Covers. Want a blank inside cover? Add a blank page after page 1 before making the booklet.
Your files stay on your device
Like every FoxletPDF tool, this one runs inside your browser. Your file is read from your device, processed with open-source PDF libraries (pdf-lib and PDF.js), and handed straight back to you as a download. Nothing is uploaded, logged or stored. See our privacy policy for details.
Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The booklet is laid out in your browser; your file never leaves your device.
Which printer setting should I use?
Double-sided printing with “flip on short edge” (sometimes called “short-edge binding”).
Why are there blank pages?
A folded booklet always has a multiple of four pages, so blanks are added at the end.
Will the pages be smaller?
Yes — two pages share each side of the sheet, so each page is printed at about 70% size.
Are links kept?
Pages are redrawn onto the booklet sheets, so links and form fields aren't kept.
