Aloaha PDF Page Imposition
Aloaha PDF imposes your PDF Documents. It combines pages onto larger (or same size) sheets to make books, booklets, or special arrangements.
The most popular feature may be an easy to use booklet maker, which can make a foldable booklet from just about any PDF file. Aloaha PDF Editor works completely visually without any Adobe Software installed.
PDF imposition is the process of assembling pages or page elements for printing. Imposition includes the alignment of business card sheets for correct printing, such that the edges precisely match the lines along which the stock will be cropped. Another pertinent example would be the process of sorting the pages of a booklet or brochure to display correctly after folding.

Document > Resize Media. The default values in the dialog are the actual values of the current document. To increase the Media from A4 to A3 just double the value. Please find the original PDF sample as A3 below.
This step can be skipped if the final paper format is the same as the original document.
