Imposition method

Description

Cut and stack

This method is used to print, cut,

 

and stack pages while preserving a

 

certain order. When the cut stacks

 

are piled one on top of the other, the

 

entire job ends up in the desired

 

order. The cut-and-stack method is

 

useful primarily for high-volume

 

variable information jobs.

 

 

Saddle stitch

This method prints pages in a

 

manner that is suited for saddle-

 

stitch binding. With this binding

 

method, sheets are folded, inserted

 

one inside another, and then

 

stitched or stapled along the spine,

 

such as in a brochure or magazine.

 

 

Perfect bound

This method prints pages in a

 

manner that is suited for perfect

 

binding. Perfect binding is a book-

 

finishing technique in which the

 

folded sheets are gathered in order

 

and clamped into place. A saw

 

roughens the spine edge of the

 

gathered pages. Glue is then

 

applied to the spine, and the cover

 

of the book is affixed to the glued

 

spine. This method is used for most

 

books.
