I have pdf slides in landscape mode and would like to create a new pdf file containing the slides 4-up (in landscape mode again) like this:
-----------------
| 1 | 2 |
-----------------
| 3 | 4 |
-----------------
I know that there is
pdfjam
(which can be used like this pdfjam --fitpaper true --nup 2x2 --delta '1mm 1mm' --scale 0.98 infile.pdf
), but it does not preserve hyperlinks -- gs
does, though. I am wondering how one could use gs
to achieve the task (?)
Alternatively, I mainly use 4-up to print slides. I couldn't manage to use lpr
for achieving this. If someone has an idea for that, this would be interesting as well.
