How to Print A5 Booklets thumbnail
Companies are now producing and printing their own A5 booklets.

The advances in computer software mean it is perfectly feasible to do basic publishing tasks yourself, with only the most rudimentary computer skills. Companies are now producing and printing their own A5 booklets and brochures, rather than outsourcing the job to a specialist firm. You do not need specialist publishing software to print an A5 booklet, just a word processing package, such as Microsoft Word, and a generic printer.
