PDF N-Up (Several Pages per Sheet)
Put 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, or 16 PDF pages on each sheet, in reading order, to print handouts and save paper.
PDF N-Up (Several Pages per Sheet): Each sheet is divided into a grid of equal cells, columns across and rows down, with the margin and a gap between cells. Pages fill the cells row by row from the top left, each scaled to fit without changing its proportions and copied as vector graphics, so text stays sharp at any size. Runs 100% locally in your browser with zero server file uploads.

Nothing is uploaded
Pages are placed row by row from the top left, each scaled to fit its space without changing its proportions. Text stays sharp because pages are copied as vector graphics, not images. Nothing is uploaded.
A worked example
A 30-slide presentation at 6 per sheet prints on 5 sheets of A4, or 3 sheets printed on both sides. With a 10 mm margin, each cell on portrait A4 is about 92 × 89 mm.
For a folded booklet instead, use the PDF booklet maker; to combine several files first, merge PDF.
Why the pages stay sharp
Each page is placed as a reusable drawing, a PDF form XObject, rather than a picture of the page, so the printer still receives text and lines it can draw at full resolution however small the page is placed.

Frequently asked questions
Which orientation is used?
Automatic puts 2 and 8 pages on a landscape sheet and 4, 6, 9, and 16 on a portrait one, which suits portrait pages; you can choose either.
Will small text still be readable?
Two or four pages per sheet usually stay readable on A4 or Letter; nine or sixteen suit slides and thumbnails more than dense text.
Does it work with slides?
Yes: landscape slide pages fit the cells the same way, with white above and below where their shapes differ.
