<title>Print folded booklets</title>

<p>You can make folded booklets (like a small book or pamphlet) by printing
 pages of a document in a special order and changing a couple of printing
 options.</p>

 first export it to a PDF by choosing <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Export
 as PDF…</gui></guiseq>. Your document needs to have a multiple of 4
 number of pages (4, 8, 12, 16,…). You may need to add up to 3 blank
pages.</p>
