Printing a Booklet with Affinity Publisher 2

I couldn’t resist the 6 month free trial of the three Affinity apps – Photo, Illustrator and Publisher. Printing a booklet, which is the main thing that I’d use Affinity Publisher 2 for, can be tricky as most of the options are hidden in various drop-down menus and pop-ups and the exact settings depend on what kind of printer you’re using.

I’m using a Xerox VersaLink C600 colour laser printer with a duplex option (it can print on both sides of the paper).

To Print as a Booklet

  1. From the File menu, select Print.
  2. From the dialog, set your Paper Size, e.g. A4.
  3. In the Print Options pop-up menu, select Document Layout.
  4. From the Model pop-up menu, select ‘Booklet’. This instructs the print process to impose pages.
  5. From the Print Options pop-up menu, select Xerox Features.
  6. From the 2-Sided Printing pop-up menu, select ‘2-Sided Print, Flip on Short Edge’.
  7. Click Print.
