PagePacker

Make pocket-sized books.

Putting together a booklet in PagePackerI stumbled upon PagePacker from the Big Nerd Ranch while trying to catch up on my Web browsing. It’s a nice little Mac OS X (universal binary app) that enables you to create tiny 8-page booklets. You can either add pages from a library of predefined GTD-inspired planning pages or drag in your own PDFs (which you can create using the Print command from any application). The resulting folding book is small enough to fit in a pocket, wallet, or purse, making it possible to take all kinds of information with you.

I tried out the software and like it a lot. My only problem: I’ve got those middle age eyes and have trouble reading the tiny print. But with a little tweaking on the font size of original documents, I think I can resolve that problem sufficiently enough to make PagePacker a good productivity tool for me.
