A browser can be a PDF reader. It can also print a PDF file if you have a printer connected to your computer. In addition, it can print PDF multiple pages per sheet. How to do that? You can see the following guides.

3. On the pop-up window, select your printer as Destination.
4. Expand More settings and then change the Pages per sheet to 2 or more.
5. Set other parameters and then click Print.

To accommodate these pages on one sheet, the font and layout will be scaled down overall. Of course, you can also change the scale manually.

How to print multiple PDF on one page using Microsoft Edge:

Way 2. Use MiniTool PDF Editor

MiniTool PDF Editor is a professional PDF editing program. It can also print PDF files and offers various printing options. How to print multiple PDF on one page using this software? You can refer to the following guide:

Step 1: Download and install MiniTool PDF Editor. Then, right-click a PDF file and open it with MiniTool PDF Editor. Now, click the Printer icon in the top left corner.

Step 2: On the pop-up window, under Printer, select your printer device. Under Page Sizing and Handling, select the Multiple tab. Then, select the Pages Per Sheet option. I recommend you select Customize, not a number, because this allows you to change the Column and Row manually. Then, select an orientation and click Print.

There are some other useful parameters for you. For example:

• Copies: The number of copies of the same document to print.
• Collate: This feature is very useful when you print multiple PDFs at once. It will separate each file in the sequence.
• Color: Decide whether to print the PDF files in color or black and white.
• Paper Size and Orientation:Vertical or Horizontal.
• Margins: It can change the page margin.
• Booklet: It is selected when making a book.
• Auto Duplex Printing: It can print PDFs on two sides of the paper sheet. Flip on Long Edge is for Vertical printing while Flip on Short Edge is for Horizontal printing.

This post tells you the difference between “flip on long edge” and “flip on short edge” in both-side printing and shows you how to do that.
