Version: 0.7.80 (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources kpdf let the user to add custom filters to the printing process, such as to pipe the document through psbook, psnup etc... before going to the printer. Using these filters one can print a document in the "booklet" format (duplex printing, w/ 2 pages on each front, arranged so you can fold the pages at the middle all together) It's planned to re-add this custom filters? If not, whould be possible to add a "print in booklet format" option?
Hi Is there any news about booklet printing / launch custom program as print filters? Do I still need kpdf?

bug#248673 and bug#275466 seems to be dublicate.
It is possible to add some filters like it was for KDE3 kdeprint? See information in http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/How_to_make_a_booklet#Method_B:_creating_your_own_filter_for_kprinter Now for command line I use this to make A5 book: pdftops -level3 input.pdf - | psbook | psnup -2 -pa4 | ps2pdf - book.pdf (For openSUSE, it requires these packages: poppler-tools psutils ghostscript-library)
Yes, i second that request - i have to look for computer having Windows to get this done.
Hi, kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years. KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish. If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue. We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.

Just in case, as far as I can tell, in "KDE 5" there is still no way to request booklet printing. At least, not in okular. Some external tool has to be used to convert an original pdf file to a pdf file with the required page layout.
