Complete PDF to print at home.
To print at home, make sure your printer is set up to print double-sided pages, and that they flip on the short side, not the long side. Fold the papers in half when they have finished printing, and use staples along the fold line to keep the pages together. The Haggadah is designed to be read right to left.
If your printer does not print double-sided, you can use this version.
The pages in this file are reversed (2 then 1, 4 then 3), so set your printer to landscape and to print two pages of content per piece of paper.
