: InDesign: which export settings for printing an A5 booklet Getting a 48-page booklet professionally printed. The printing company states we should export as PDF (x1 a 2001) with fonts converted

@Shanna688

Normally you should export this as single pages (not spreads). As for the other export settings, you should use your printing company's requirements.

As a general rule, its not always necessary to convert the fonts to outlines, nor is it necessary to use the 'x1 a 2001' standard. Most printers can handle any kind of high res export, but if they do make specific requirements, you should follow these to make sure they wont have any problems.

I do admit however that converting a 48-page document to outlines is a bit unusual, but they must have their reasons.
