Independent workflow review
Why this page remains separate: This page remains independent because it creates 2, 4, 6, or 8-up handout sheets for compact review or printing instead of preserving one source page per sheet.
Reviewed 2026-07-19: Implementation review checked grid choices, paper sizes, margins, source ordering, incomplete final sheets, preview, and imposed-copy export.
Common questions
Can I put four PDF pages on one sheet?
Yes. Four-up handouts are a common N-Up layout.
Will tiny text stay readable?
Not always. Choose fewer pages per sheet when readability matters.
Can I reorder pages before N-Up layout?
Yes. The layout uses the arranged page order in the workspace.
