printing presentations from evince

sometimes i need to print presentation slides with just big text, and i want to do it n-up so it doesn't waste paper. i've found that the best way to do it with evince is to set 'layout' to two-sided: long edge (standard), pages per side: 6, page ordering: left to right, top to bottom, and 'paper' orientation: landscape. 12 slides per sheet and still very readable.
also, it often helps to concatenate pdfs together so the nup has multiple presentations without a page break:
