************************************************************** * Printing the A5 version of the NO2ID Campaigners' Handbook * ************************************************************** These instructions should work for most common printers. No doubt there are exceptions, so try printing one copy first of all. GETTING READY Make sure you have *both* PDF files. These are called: "NO2ID handbook fronts.pdf" "NO2ID handbook backs.pdf" An up-to-date version of Acrobat Reader may help, too. You can obtain this from http://www.adobe com Scroll to the bottom of that page and click on the 'Get Free Reader' button near the bottom left. It's about a 20 MB download, so if you have a dialup connection to the Internet, you may be be better off finding a computer magazine with the Reader software included on a cover disk. PRINTING You will need nine sheets of A4 paper per copy of the handbook. The pages are already collated for you; all you need to do is print "NO2ID handbook fronts.pdf" on to one side of a stack of paper, reload the printed stack into your printer and print "NO2ID handbook backs.pdf" on to the other side. If you've kept the page numbers to the same side of your printer for both sides, then you will have one or more copies of the handbook collated and ready for stapling. Open "NO2ID handbook fronts.pdf" in Acrobat Reader. Open the print dialogue box (go to 'File' in the top left corner, and then click on 'Print'). Make sure the 'Auto-Rotate and Center' box is ticked. Click on the 'OK' button to print the fronts of the sheets in your stack. When these are printed, take the whole stack as if it were one sheet of paper and turn it end over end and reload it into your printer ready to have the other side printed. Close "NO2ID handbook fronts.pdf" and open "NO2ID handbook backs.pdf". Open the print dialogue box (go to 'File' in the top left corner, and then click on 'Print'). Make sure the 'Auto-Rotate and Center' box is still ticked. Click on the 'OK' button to print the backs of the sheets in your stack. All done. Advanced users will have worked out how to print more than one copy by now. Have fun! Pete Wright Portsmouth 27 January 2005
