Printing: A4 to A5 - so it'll work

In order to print a Word / PDF document from A4 to A5, you rarely have to do anything. We will show you the individual steps using Word as an example.

Printing: From A4 to A5

In this example, we assume Word 2010, but the procedure is similar for most programs, regardless of whether you want to print a spreadsheet in A5 format or a PDF.

1. First, click on "File"> "Print" as usual.
2. Then select "Settings" in the "Print" menu.
3. In Word's "Settings" you will find a pulldown menu at the third to last position, mostly with A4 selected. You then simply select the DIN A5 format instead of the A4 format.
4. The following applies to printing PDF files in Adobe Reader: "Print"> "Page setup"> "A5"
5. Alternatively, you can also set the print format on the printer for many more expensive printers.
