PDF Mikata

Arrange a PDF as a Booklet for Printing

Print, fold and you have a booklet.

Your PDF is never uploaded. Everything is processed on this device.

How to use

  1. Tap "Choose a PDF" and select one PDF.
  2. Choose the paper to print on (such as A4) and the binding.
  3. Tap "Create the booklet PDF" and save.
  4. Print the saved PDF double-sided (flip on short edge) and fold it in half.

How it works

  • Four pages are laid out across the front and back of each sheet.
  • Pages are reordered so they read in order once folded.

Notes

  • If the page count isn't a multiple of 4, blank pages are added at the end.
  • In the printer settings choose "double-sided" and "flip on short edge".
  • Password-protected PDFs are not supported.

FAQ

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything is processed inside the browser on your device.

How many pages can it handle?

There is no fixed limit. A thick booklet gets bulky when the sheets are folded together.

Does it work for right-bound books?

Yes. Choose "Right binding" and the left and right pages swap.
