How to print 4 issues on a A4 sheet?

[Sirko Manthey]

Hi Folks,

I need to print 4 issues on a single A4 sheet. InstaPrinta generates PDF with 1 issue per page, how do I change that?

Thank you.

Hi Sirko,

sorry for the delay of our answer! Yes, the InstaPrinta plugins allows you to create any custom layout / paper format / arrangement, that you want. It uses XSL-FO to create the Postscript / PDF output, so you need some XML / XSL / XSL-FO knowledge to realize that.

For your specific question I have prepared an example template, that you can download from our template creation guide: https://info.seibert-media.net/display/DOC/InstaPrinta+-+Template+Creation+Guide+2.1.0#InstaPrinta-TemplateCreationGuide2.1.0-4issuesononeA4page

Please try this example template and customize it further to fit your needs.

If you still have any questions, please bring them up again!
