FROM SHEET TO BOOKLET

A few folds. One small cut.

  1. Download the PDF and print one-sided, landscape, at actual size (100%). Use the matching paper size; disable “fit to page.”
  2. Fold the sheet in half lengthwise, then open it. Fold across the short direction and open again. Fold both short edges to the center and unfold. You now have eight panels.
  3. With the sheet flat, cut only along the center horizontal crease between the first and third vertical creases. The slit spans the two middle panels.
  4. Fold lengthwise again. Push the two short ends toward each other so the slit opens into a diamond, then a cross.
  5. Flatten the cross into a booklet, with page 1 at the front and page 8 at the back. Sharpen the creases.

Tip: try a draft first. Home printers may leave a narrow white border; keep important content away from the edges.
