SCHEMA EXPLANATION
Fixed signature size of 16 pages, printed recto-verso on a single sheet.
Typical usage: print A6 on A3, then fold trice, first along the y axys, then the x axys and finally the y axys again. You need to trim the top and right margins before binding.
Not suitable for home-printing because the spine is unstable unless done by a machine.
