Booklet

This repository allows you to transform a Markdown file into a printable A6 booklet.

You simply write your content in Markdown and run a build script. The script generates:

  • an A6 PDF with correctly ordered pages
  • a second imposed PDF ready for booklet printing

Step 1 — Create your Markdown file

Create a Markdown document:

notes.md

Write your content normally using Markdown.

Step 2 — Build the booklet

Run the build script:

./build.sh <input-markdown> <output-name>

Example:

./build.sh notes.md my-booklet

Output

After execution, the output/ folder will contain:

output/
├── my-booklet-a6.pdf
└── my-booklet-imposed-a4.pdf

my-booklet-a6.pdf

A6-sized PDF with pages already ordered correctly.

my-booklet-imposed-a4.pdf

Booklet imposition version ready for printing.


Print

Print the *-imposed-a4.pdf file:

  • double-sided printing
  • flip on short edge
  • fold sheets in half

Your booklet is ready.
