Question

Software for custom jpg/slide printing?

Feb 10, 2014 11:59PM PST

The question that's been bothering me for over a year is this: I'm at college and have a lot of slides in a pdf file. Lets say I want to print every pdf 8 slides per page (just a option in printing).

The problem now is that sometimes there is a slide with a lot of information that I want to have bigger printed. So I've been looking for software that just let's you give the dimensions for every slide, and it chooses how to print it accordingly (ofc not always 8 slides per page then)

I haven't been finding it, so now I've converted the slides to jpg's, thinking this might be easier to custom print?
So, any software ideas?
Thanks a dozen!

I've seen a lot over the decades but nothing like this. While I could print to size if I put each into a Word document that's a bit of work but may be worth it for a custom print job.

And yes you could create such an app.

I'd buy a tablet so you can use your pdf's like some sort of e-book. Enlarging the occasional slide is just spreading your thumb and forefinger. No need for printing then.
