Converting Letter PDF to 11x17 PDF Booklet
Converting Letter PDF to 11x17 PDF Booklet
Is there any built-in way (or established sample code) to take a PDF of letter-sized pages and convert it to a PDF of 11x17 sized pages such that the 11x17 PDF will print as a booklet with staples down a center spine? So it's reordering the letter-sized pages and then combining them into 11x17" pages.
I don't want to just print a regular PDF as a booklet (this is not a print driver thing). I need to actually convert the PDF to the booklet version to send out to another company for printing.
Thanks,
Bryan

Re: Converting Letter PDF to 11x17 PDF Booklet
In US sizing, a single 11x17" sheet in landscape is the same size as two letter size (8.5x11) portrait sheets placed side-by-side. I want to take two letter sized PDF pages and place them on a single 11x17 PDF page -- effectively merging two pages into one without scaling or resizing.
Does that make sense? We're trying to reproduce the functionality of a program like this:

But using GdPicture so that we can automate the process.

Hi blewis.
Now i understand whar you want to do.
You must use the DrawPage function
https://www.gdpicture.com/guides/gdpicture/web ... wPage.html
You open the original pdf and you create a new one
You can then create a new 11x17" page in the new pdf and draw page 1 and 2 from the original pdf to the destination one.
Repeat as many times as needed.
Hope this help
