Any ideas?

Do you want to make a booklet out ouf your original work? I didn't quite follow.

If you do want to do that, you need to create a new file creating a completely new pdf file, please see the example below:

I see I need to use those options from a different file.
I was trying to create my a4 file and my booklet at the same time and it was never going to work.
Thank you.
