For anyone wanting to take a 1 or 2 pg pdf and turn it into a pdf with 2 copies of that side-by-side in landscape view ( great for printing flyers), see my answer here. /attachments/e57guidelinesgpsinformationtopatients150722.pdf.

The -sufix '2x2' part simply says to add 2x2 as a suffix to the output file name, for easier recognition of which files it just generated.

You can do multiple pdfs as a batch like this (this example is taken from the man page: man pdfnup): pdfnup -nup 2x2 -suffix '2x2' -batch myfile1.pdf myfile2.pdf See man pdfnup for a few more details: pdfnup -nup 2x1 mypdf.pdf

This creates a pdf with 2 pages side-by-side per sheet on a landscape view, to be printed flipped over the short edge. Most of what you want to achieve in printing PDF documents can be achieved if you know how to use Adobe Readers print dialog box options. Install pdfnup on Ubuntu with: sudo apt install texlive-extra-utils It allows you to pack multiple sheets on 1. For some cases you may want to use pdfnup instead.
