Making N in 1 copies or a poster (Page Layout)
You can reduce the amount of copies by using the N in 1 copy 
feature. This allows you to copy two or four pages onto one page, 
allowing you to save paper. It is also possible to create a poster. 
When you use the Poster feature your DCP divides your document 
into sections, then enlarges the sections so you can assemble them 
into a poster.
