Reply To: Page numbers and printers spreads

Not being funny, but I'd get a new printer that can handle pdfs in readers spreads. That is the way forward.

If not then I'd package the file up and send that to the printers (minus the fonts, they'd have to purchase them themselves if they don't have them already).

And let the printer deal with the imposition, they should be doing it anyway, that's why I say to get a new printers.

Anyway, have you looked at the File>Print Booklet function, and you can then print your file to a PDF and send that with the pages all in Printers Spreads.

I just don't think it's up to you to supply the file in printers spreads, in my opinion that is the printers job. And if they can't handle imposition or PDFs in readers spreads then there's something really archaic about their workflow that sends shivers down my spine.
