Change single page to spreads

This flow is designed to generate a version of a multi-page PDF file that contains spreads for all pages.

This flow is compatible with: FullSWITCH, PowerSWITCH.

Information

The PDF Enhancer configurator is used to change the PDF so that all A4 pages are placed as spreads on A3 pages.

• The input folder can contain different sorts of files. The non-PDF files are sorted out and moved directly to the "Archive" folder.
• In this example pdfInspektor3 from callas Software is used to check the number of pages in a PDF.
  If the PDF only contains 1 page, it is not necessary to turn it into a spread, so it will be moved to the archive as well.
• If a PDF does contain more than 1 page it is moved into the "Multi page PDF". The PDF Enhancer configurator is set up to place each 2 pages on an A3 so that the PDF is containing spreads for all pages.
