I need some help with Preps 5.3 please

[Joe]

When I used preps 3.7.7 it used to be as easy as DCurry posted. But it doesnt work that way in preps 5.3. My signiture list is only 8 sigs long instead of the 32 it used to be.

I'm not sure exactly what you are wanting to be on the printed sheet. Given the template you posted you should end up with 4 sheets front & back with 4 pages on each side. 4 sheets x 2 sided x 4 pages on each side of each sheet = 32 pages (4 x 2 = 8 x 4 = 32) and if you print it the way my screen shot shows it should just print the front and back of sheet P1 & 32 - 4 & 29 and P2 & 31 - 3 & 30. Do you not want 4 pages on each printed sheet?

Yes thats exactly what I want. And the way its set up it should do that. But it doesnt. It prints all 4 sheets, front and back, 32 pages, at once.
Thanks

And printing it the way it is in the screen shot I provided prints all 4 sheets?

If that's true change it so "Print Sides that includes pages" is not grayed out and enter in 1-2 in the text box to the right of it and it should only print the sheets that contains P1 & P2 (front and back of sheet 1).

Looking at your first screenshot, you don't have "Specify Print Range" selected. Once it is selected, the area below it will not longer be grayed out and you can select "Print Signatures" and enter the range. If you want Sig 1, enter 1 in the range and make sure Front and Back is selected under Sides. If you only want one side, change that setting accordingly.

Example: If you wanted the 3rd sig Back to print, you would have Range: 3 and Sides: Back.
