A few moments from BookletMaker on Mac, iPad, iPhone, Windows, and Android.

Every imposition you'd actually print

Saddle-stitched booklet, mini-booklet, 2-up, 4-up, custom n-up — and the controls that matter for the cut.

📖

Saddle-stitched booklets

Configurable signature size from a single booklet to 32-page signatures, with creep compensation that pulls inner pages out by a configurable amount per sheet.

2-up, 4-up, n-up grids

Standard layouts plus any custom n-up grid. Choose paper, orientation, direction, scale, cell borders, crop marks — BookletMaker handles ordering and rotation.

🪡

Inline text editor (Mac & iPad)

Tap a paragraph to edit text directly in the PDF — original font, size, and color preserved. Surrounding content reflows so longer edits push down.

🔍

Find & Replace

Search across the entire document and replace every match with proper font matching. Whited-out and overlaid using the original glyphs.

✍️

Annotate & sign

Highlight, redact, sticky notes, ink, signature stamps, image insertion — all with cross-platform commit pipelines.

🔠

OCR with Apple Vision

Run on-device OCR over scanned PDFs to make them searchable. Save the recognized text as a plain-text file.

🧹

Cleanup pass

Crop margins, remove blank pages, split landscape spreads into portrait halves, rasterize corrupted source PDFs, choose which page-boundary box (media / crop / trim) to use.

🔢

Page numbers your way

Position (top, bottom, inner, outer), font size, color, format token ({n} or {n} of {total}), starting offset, and skip-first behavior for cover pages.

📐

Hole punch margins

Leave the right margin for 2-, 3-, 4-, or 6-hole binders with visual guides.

💧

Watermark + letterhead

Text watermark with adjustable opacity. Use any 1-page PDF as a letterhead applied to all pages, first page, odd, or even.

⚙️

Booklet Factory (batch)

Batch-impose dozens of PDFs in one run. Drop the output to a folder of your choice, every file imposed with the current preset.

🖨️

AirPrint & export

Save imposed PDF, flatten annotations, export with a password, export each page as PNG / JPEG / TIFF, copy as PDF, or print directly via AirPrint.

Private by design

BookletMaker runs entirely on your device. Your PDFs never leave your Mac, iPad, iPhone, or Windows PC — even the web tool imposes locally in your browser. No accounts, no cloud upload, no analytics on what you print.
