Duplicate full document (header, footer, questions) twice on the same physical page in Typst?

Hi! I’m using the Examify Typst template to generate exam papers.

I want to print the same full exam page twice on one A4 sheet, like teacher slip-cut handout sheets.

This means:

  • :white_check_mark: Header repeated
  • :white_check_mark: Body/questions repeated
  • :white_check_mark: Footer repeated
  • :white_check_mark: Both full copies on one physical page
  • :x: Not just repeating questions
  • :x: Not two separate pages

Hi, welcome to the forum!

I don’t quite understand this sentence… Printing on A4 paper and distributing A5 paper? Could you draw a sketch?

I think the closest thing you can do is a second Typst document that includes the first document (compiled output) twice:

#image("exam.pdf", height: 1fr)
#repeat(".")
#image("exam.pdf", height: 1fr)

Note that including PDF files like this requires Typst 0.14.
