GPL - printing disk copy of four wheel drift

by Laurence Wilme » Sat, 17 Feb 2001 01:57:08

I got the cheapo later version of the game, and no documentation
supplied - its all on disk in .pdf files.

Four wheel drift is a beaut, and I'd love to print it but 100 pages of
A4 (Cumbersome)! Has anyone found a way of reformatting .pdfs so that
could, e.g. print 2 A5s side by side on a landscape A4. Odd pages
first, re-feed for even to get doublesided. Hrumph - can't even print
odd or even only in Acrobat!!

I tink lots of people would want to do this, to get the hardcopy they
missed

Tia,

Laurence.

You need a program called "fineprint" (www.fineprint.com) it has
options for printing 2 pages  per sheet, 4 pages per sheet and
even 8 pages per sheet. I printed mine on 4 pages per sheet
and it was quite readable.

As another option, check your printer setup. Some allow multiple pages on a
printed page. My HP932 has this option, but I didn't know it until your post
prompted me to look!

Thanks for that suggestion - not bad, but I don't get the graphics :-(
