<p>If you want to print a booklet from a <app>LibreOffice</app> document,
first export it to a PDF by choosing <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Export

number of pages (4, 8, 12, 16,...). You may need to add up to 3 blank
pages.</p>

multiple of 4. To do so, you can:</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Create a <app>LibreOffice</app> document with the number (1-3) of blank
pages needed.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Export the blank pages to a PDF by choosing <guiseq><gui>File</gui>
<gui>Export as PDF…</gui></guiseq>.</p>
</item>
<item>

or <app>PDF Mod</app>, placing the blank pages at the end.</p>
</item>
