FinePrint - Printing Multiple Pages on One Page

What is FinePrint?

FinePrint is a Windows software/driver developed by Single Track Software. It allows you to print multiple pages of a document onto one page.

 

What can it do for me?

FinePrint can cut your printing costs in half. It can convert your 8 page picture, html or word processor document into a single page why still keeping it legible. Not only will it cut your printing costs but it will also save a few trees. This is very useful for programmers or people who like to preview printouts before the final document is printed.

 

How do I use FinePrint?

Here is a brief overview of how to use FinePrint. More information may be obtained directly from the Single Track Sofware site http://www.singletrack.com. After downloading and installing the demo version of FinePrint, run the application you wish to print from. Change the current printer to the FinePrint printer (in most Windows application this can be done my selecting File | Print and selecting the FinePrint driver from the drop down box of Printer Names. Press Ok.

The FinePrint Dialog box will appear prompting you for printing information. From the Layout Tab, you can choose to fit 1, 2, 4 or 8 pages of the document onto one page. You can also choose to add boarders around each virtual page by Selecting Smart Boarders or Boarders On. Press OK when you are satisfied with the settings and are ready to print!

 

Sounds gnarly, where do I pick it up?

You can download a demo version of FinePrint (limited to printing 12 pages at a time, and contains the FinePrint Shareware banner) from Single Track Software at http://www.singletrack.com. You can purchase a license/register your version to remove the 12 page cap and bannering.
