    When to use this tool

    Save paper printing a deck for a review meeting, fit a 40-page handout onto 10 sheets, or set up a print-then-cut booklet. The reading order is preserved — pages appear left-to-right, top-to-bottom on each sheet.

    Step by step

    1. Drop the PDFs. Each file becomes one N-up output.
    2. Pick pages-per-sheet. 2-up is good for two slides side-by-side; 4-up is the most common for hand-outs.
    3. Pick sheet size and gap. "Match source" keeps your existing page size; pick A4 or Letter to standardise across mixed sources.
    4. Click "Make N-up & download". Output named name-Nup.pdf.

    FAQ

    What's the layout direction?

    Left-to-right, top-to-bottom. So 4-up is a 2×2 grid with page 1 top-left, page 2 top-right, page 3 bottom-left, page 4 bottom-right.
