  Tabloid booklet on letter size paper

  Posted by Scott Lebeau on March 20, 2009 at 7:23 pm

  Hi everyone thanks for reading and thanks in advance for any assistance.
  We have created booklet where we print on tabloid size paper and fold it in half. Now we wish to print the same booklet on letter size paper. Can anyone recommend a method for doing this? I’m a bit lost when I try to think of a method. The only way I can imagine making this happen is to create a new document with new paper size and start copying and pasting and resizing everything. Can anyone confirm this as being the best way to do this or PLEASE recommend a better way. unfortunately if we were to “shrink to fit” there would be an unwanted border.

  If the border is unacceptable, what about distortion? You could make a new Indy document with the letter size settings and import the other Indy document. Then size it to fit the letter size (unproportionally – wow is that really a word, maybe disproportionally is better?)

  Otherwise, yeah, you gotta real-do the layout.
