Printing multiple pages of smaller format on one page

Question

I know it is easily possible to let the printer drivers shrink your page so that multiple of them fit on one page.

I want to do the same thing, but in a slightly different version. I have a Word document with a very special width and height. Because it's much smaller than DIN A4, I want to print multiple of them on one page. How can I do that whilst keeping the width and height the same?

Answer 1

I've never been able to do this from Word natively but I have used FinePrint which will fit multiple document pages onto one page for printing.

It's a paid for application (it costs $49.95), but there is a free version which does have some limitations and include "Printed by Fine Print" (or something similar) in the footer, but might be OK for you.

Answer 2

Word can do this natively. In the lower right of the print dialog there is the option to print multiple pages on a single one as well as scaling options (which might come in handy to prevent scaling down the pages even further if they are smaller than A5).

Note: It seems that Word won't scale down the pages as long as they aren't larger than the portion of the tiles page they should occupy.
