To print more than one file per page
Let’s say you bought a 5×7 Card and decided that you would like to save some paper and print 2 cards per page instead of just 1. This is a simple fix! When you are in your print settings, change your “pages per sheet” to 2. This will print 2 smaller cards instead of 1 bigger.
Tip: Always print a test copy of your project to proof your work. This will not only eliminate waste, but it will save you time and money.
