I use the exam class for my tests. I usually give them in a booklet format which is the folded version of A3 paper. Here is a sample 4-page test:
\documentclass[addpoints, 10pt, a4paper]{exam}
%\usepackage[a3paper, landscape, twocolumn]{geometry}
\usepackage{lastpage}
\footer{}{Page \thepage / \pageref{LastPage}}{}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\pagestyle{headandfoot}
\firstpageheader{\begin{center}
Sample Test
\end{center}}{}{}
\runningheader{\begin{center}
Sample Test
\end{center}}{}{}
\gradetable[h]
\begin{questions}
\question[25]
\begin{figure}[h]
\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{figs/test.eps}
\end{figure}
\newpage
\question[25]
\newpage
\question[25]
\newpage
\question[25]
\end{questions}
\end{document}
When the geometry line uncommented, what I expect is this:
But the page footer does not align and it looks like it's 2-page. More importantly, the page order is not in correct order (4,1,2,3) for booklet format.
How I prepared the A3 booklet by now is quite impractical. After I compiled the test pdf in A4, passed it to PDFLaTeX like:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[landscape,a3paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\begin{document}
\includepdf[pages={4,1},nup=2x1]{test.pdf}
\includepdf[pages={2,3},nup=2x1]{test.pdf}
\end{document}
Is there any way I can do this directly in my document?
