This question appears to be off-topic because asking what to write or asking for help rephrasing a sentence or passage are both off-topic here, as such questions are very unlikely to help anybody else.


The GIF shows the reader not really comprehending what the book is saying (unless they are incredibly fast at reading), rather they are jumping across pages, perhaps to find a specific section, or just out of boredom.


So, you have choices, 'flip' or 'riffle' through. I prefer 'riffle through' as it implies going rapidly; whereas, to me, 'flip through' implies a casual perusal maybe seeking/hunting through to a page you stopped off at some time ago and regretfully forgot to place a bookmark.


I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro in Windows 10. I just bought a new HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw. When I print in Booklet format, the pages are flipping the wrong way so that half of them are upside down. I have played with the settings and cannot get it to print any differently. Is there a setting that I am missing, or is there likely an update that is needed for the program or the printer?


I don't think I've ever seen a case where this wasn't due to using the wrong page flip direction in the duplexer settings, which are inthe print driver setup. Whatever you've fot selected now, choose the other one. DIfferent printers use differerent names for the settings, but they all do the same thing, either flip around the long edge of the paper or flip around the short edge. There just aren't any other possibilities.


When you say some of the pages is it random pages or is it all the back are upside down (or the fronts, for that matter)? If all your back pages are upside down, it's clearly a setting. If you're printing head to head, try printing head to foot or vice versa.


If it is only a few pages it can't really be settings... the duplex setting refers to the whole book. Maybe you have used the wrong imposition and the number of pages in a flat is incorrect. Does the book have placed EPS or PDF's?


The language can seem seem counterintuitive. My digital printer uses the term front and rear for pulling a sheet. And even weirder, if front is the top of the sheet, rear is the side of the sheet when one would think it's the bottom. I'm constantly choosing front when I need rear and entering a positive # when I need a negative # when trying to align the back of a sheet to the front. Usually takes me a good 5-10 test sheets before I get good registration.


Same here. I figured it had to be some kind of setting because the first print was perfect. But I needed to make some editing changes next think you know I had one side good one side upside down. I'm relived.


The flip edge refers to the edge of the sheet in the printer, not the page in the layout. When you impose your booklet your portrait oriented "long" edge of your document page is now parallel to the short edge of the printer sheet.


My Canon MP560 has no phrase " flip short edge". In the Duplex Printing & Margin settings set the Print Area as "use reduced printing" and the Stapling Side as "short-side stapling (TOP). Even though we are using same language each device/user has own interpretation.


yea I am now pretty sure this is my issue. I have to print out 400 booklets 20 pages. This was soo help full because I was thinking flip short edge meant the book would print like a card that opened from the bottom.. made no sence.


same problems - easily solved in the end by ignoring any options in the Adobe print manager - just print normally, full page and use the printer driver settings to select: booklet printing; left edge binding; duplex -


I was exporting mine as PDF from InDesign as well, and had one page randomly doing this too.



I tracked it down to one image on that particular page which had been rotated 90 degrees. I un-rotated it and it worked.


Something to add...I was having the same issue. I tried "flip along short" and "flip along long" edge, both producing the same result. I closed the file, quit Acrobat, and re-started the program. The next attempt worked. The old turn it off and turn it back on trick works again!


If you are using an HP Officejet (mine is the OfficeJet Pro 8600) when you bring up the printer dialog box in Acrobat Reader and select booklet, you must check the box next to "Auto-rotate pages within each sheet". This will make the back sides of each sheet print right-side up.


I just spent hours and loads of paper on this, looked at all the help pages here and elsewhere, tried updating printer driver. Discovered it was printing back side in PDF booklet upside down on two printers (Brother mono laser and Epson Expression). I tried all the settings I could find. Someone somewhere said set it to print in portrait not landscape, and Voilla! It worked. Why did it take me hours and hours to find this and why don't the Adobe guideless specify this upfront? I was already saying bind on short edge. Tried checking "automatically rotate pages." Nothing worked until setting print setting to portrait rather than landscape.


This seems like such a silly question, but! When playing the piano, I sometimes struggle to turn the pages of my music without noticeably sacrificing the sound of the piece or making the book / sheets fall. For a complicated piece where there isn't a break in one hand that would allow raising a hand to turn the page, is there a trick I can use to quickly flip the page of music and keep the music going?


One of the tricks you can use is one I have learned watching Gustav Leonhardt in concert. For difficult page turns, he uses a little copy of the start of the next page that he pastes on the side of the preceding right page as a flip.


Not only is it easier on his memory but it allows to grab the page quickly and turn it efficiently. Now that scanners and printers exist, this is really easy to do.Leonhardt often copied the parts by hand (which is not bad for memory).


A related thing you can do is to copy the right and left side and putting them in front of you at the same time when studying the passage. It will flow better in general, you will be less dependent of the precise moment you do the page turns, when you use the original score (which is usually required in concert for copyright reasons).


In general I find that I am slowed by grabbing the page, not by the actual turning. You could bend the corners of the pages forward so that it's easier to grab quickly, or use those sticky flags on the pages, or something like that.


As for turning pages where there's no break for one hand, you need to memorize the music. You can memorize all of it and discard the sheet music1, or memorize the last few bars after you did have a break, or memorize the first few bars of the next page before a break.


A pianist I used to work with would never actually grab the pages she was turning. She would just rely on the friction of her fingers between the front face of the page and swipe the page across. It was a very fast, efficient, and somewhat violent movement. I would not recommend this on any score with a weak binding or easily torn pages.


Just like any other difficulty with a piece, you take a line or so before the difficulty, and practice through to a line or so afterwards. Spend some time figuring out if you need to simplify some part of the piece. Try memorizing a section before or after the page flip, and it can help you get to a part of the piece where it is easier to spare a hand for a moment. This might come in handy even if you have a page-turner, to give you the moment to nod for the page flip!


Every pianist I know photocopies and hole punches the sheet music to go into a 1" black binder. This also allows them the luxury of unfolding taped pages so they can play until a break before needing a page turn, but the use of a binder alone should make it easier to grasp and cleanly turn a page compared to a bound paperback or folded free sheet music.


Of course, the pianists I know would all memorize their solo literature and acquire a page-turner if accompanying an instrumental soloist--and then there is the questionable legality of photocopying for that purpose, but anyway that's the perspective I'm familiar with: Memorize, if not: page turner, if not: minimize page turns with taped photocopies, and/or: photocopies in black 3-ring.


Spend some time with the piece and memorize the next chord, for all of the page turns; that way, you can have your left hand or right hand on the piano keys and automatically find the next notes as you take a second to turn the page.


I get to know a piece well, then rewrite it onto one page or two using my own peculiar notations. Once I know the piece, I just need reminders of what to play. The actual notes are memorized by my fingers, so to speak. While learning the piece, page turning is a problem, sure, but there's no audience to be bothered by ugly breaks in the music.
