BookletMaker is a PDF imposition and template app that turns any PDF into a print-ready booklet and gives you 40+ fully editable templates for bulletins, programs, invitations, cards, zines, menus and photo books. Change every word, photo and shape, then print on your own printer. It runs on your Mac, iPad and iPhone, with no account and no upload, in 34 languages. COMMON QUESTIONS How do I make an invitation, card or bulletin? Open Templates, pick a design, tap any text, photo or shape to change it, then print or save. How do I print a PDF as a booklet? Open the PDF, choose a preset, then print or save. Page order, rotation and duplex flipping are automatic, with a guided mode for printers without duplex. What is PDF imposition? Arranging pages so folded sheets read in the right order. BookletMaker does saddle-stitched booklets, mini-booklets, n-up grids, signature folding and creep compensation. Does BookletMaker upload my files? No. Every page is processed on your device, and your documents and photos never leave it. Templates are plain files the app downloads; nothing about your documents is sent. What does Pro add? Signature folding, creep, fold margin, hole punch, watermarks, letterhead, batch tools, Pro templates, My Templates and My Presets. Anyone who bought the app before 2.0 keeps everything unlocked.
