Octavo arranges your pages for perfect printing — booklets, mini zines, business cards, and more. It also cleans up messy PDFs: fix mismatched page sizes, straighten skewed scans, and position each page precisely.
Create saddle-stitched booklets with automatic page ordering. Just load your PDF and Octavo handles the imposition maths.
Fold a single sheet of paper into an 8-page zine or a concertina. Perfect for handouts, art projects, and quick publications.
Lay out business cards or labels on standard sheet sizes. Set rows, columns, and gutters to match your paper stock.
Fix mismatched page sizes, straighten skewed scans, and reposition pages precisely. Even apply filters for monochrome, sharpening, and noise reduction.
See exactly how your imposed pages will look before you print. Adjust settings and watch the layout update in real time.
Add crop marks, fold marks, and registration marks. Optionally number your pages for easy assembly.
Octavo is a Mac-assed Mac app. With a Liquid Glass user interface, deep integration into the macOS printing system, and an offline user manual via Help, Octavo is designed to delight.
Set up your duplex printing settings, preview your printer's non-printable margins, and manage trays and paper stock.
A one-off lifetime unlock, so no ongoing payment to worry about.
