START WITH YOUR EXISTING PDF

Source document

Choose one PDF with one insert per page, in reading order. Up to 20 MiB / 120 pages. Your file stays on your device.

No PDF selected

Your original PDF is never overwritten.

01

Size & paper

Paper size is the full sheet in your printer. Trim size is the finished insert after cutting. A5 or Half Letter?

Your design stays whole. No stretching or text reflow.

Left on fronts, right on backs. Skip this if your design already includes a binding margin.

Printable safe area & trim marks

A planning margin, not a measurement of your printer. Zero does not guarantee borderless printing.

02

Sides & order

Match this edge in your printer dialog. Short-edge output backs rotate 180°; the upright preview turns them back for reading.

Choose a PDF to see its page pairs.

Manual duplex? First mark two sheets A/B and test their feed direction. There is no universal “face down” instruction.

03

Test & adjust

Start with a sheet, not the whole stack. Our two-sided test uses 100 mm rulers and asymmetric corner labels.

You can export now and test later. Your result remains marked as not test-printed.

Measure while viewing the back upright. These inputs describe the error; we move the back in the opposite direction.

No back-side compensation.

Not test-printed.

04

Ready for paper.

Download your PDF, then select 100% / Actual size in your print dialog.

Keep your settings for next time

Settings only. No PDF, file name, preview or content hash is included.

Did the test print improve?

Copy it into an email to [email protected]. Nothing is sent automatically. Please do not attach private PDFs.

Plus: batch PDFs and saved print profiles

Prepare several PDFs together and save your print setups. US$9 once, plus applicable taxes. No subscription. Check the Plus panel for checkout availability; the individual-PDF workspace stays free.

Print the planner you already have.

Use the PDF you already have
Use a planner you bought, downloaded or made. Resize the whole page without stretching it, and check any extra white space before exporting.
Know what goes on each side
Check every front/back pair, including added blanks. Download one file for automatic duplex or separate Fronts and Backs for manual printing.
Test a repeatable back-side shift
Check scale with the 100 mm test rulers. If the back repeats the same shift, measure it and apply an offset. Varying shifts or skew need a printer or feed check.
Keep usable text and vectors
Supported text and vector artwork stay in your exported PDF. Scans remain images; enlarging them does not add detail.

One insert per output side. Print the exported file at 100% / Actual size, then cut. This tool does not provide borderless printer modes, two-up spreads, cutting or punching services.

Planner PDF printing questions

Can I resize an A5 planner PDF to Half Letter?

Yes. Select Half Letter and Fit whole design. An A5 design scales to about 94.39%, keeping its proportions with space above and below. A5 is wider than Half Letter, so Actual size cannot fit it into that narrower frame. See the dimensions and worked example.

Why are my double-sided planner pages not lining up?

Start with a test sheet. If the 100 mm ruler is the wrong length, check scaling first. If the back repeats the same shift, measure it upright and enter that observed offset. Varying shifts or skew cannot be corrected with one X/Y value. Follow the alignment checks.

Will this remove white borders from my printer?

No. Printer margins and borderless modes depend on the printer, paper and driver. You can place a smaller insert on A4 or Letter paper and cut around it, provided the design and trim marks fit your printable area.

Can I print Personal-size inserts on standard paper?

Use Custom trim and enter your own insert measurements, within the tool’s supported range of 60–210 mm wide and 100–260 mm high. The exported full sheet is A4 or Letter, with one insert per side for cutting. This does not enable automatic duplex on a small paper size your printer rejects.

What happens when my planner PDF has an odd number of pages?

Duplex adds a final blank when needed: a seven-page file becomes eight output sides on four sheets. Original blank pages stay. If the first source page is a back, choose that setting to add a blank front. Single-sided mode does not add pairing blanks.

Is the tool free, and do I have to upload my PDF?

Yes. Resize and export individual PDFs for free, including double-sided output and test sheets. No account, watermark or export cooldown. Plus adds batch processing and saved print profiles for US$9 once when sales open. Your PDF stays in your browser. Compare Core and Plus. Read how files and storage are handled.

A SMALL NOTE BEFORE YOU PRINT

Before you print

Print at 100% / Actual size. Match your paper and flip edge. If the shift changes from sheet to sheet, check the printer rather than chasing an offset.
