8 Production workflows

Printing using imposition

Imposition overview

Imposition is the process of positioning page images on a sheet of paper so that when a printer or digital printing press prints the sheet, the page images will be in the right order. It is part of the process of producing finished documents.

In addition to page images, you can add various marks to the sheets to aid the production process. These marks show where the paper should be folded or trimmed.

Imposition does not affect the content of the individual page but rather affects only the placement of the page images on a press sheet. Imposition is a combination of content and layout. The content consists of the pages that should be printed, and the layout is the location of the page on the sheet, along with the page’s printing marks, crop marks, and fold marks.

The CX print server provides several imposition methods.

Imposition method

Description

Step and repeat

This method is the most efficient one

 

when you want to print multiple

 

copies of the same image and fill

 

each sheet to capacity—for

 

example, many business cards on

 

one sheet.

 

 

Step and continue

This method enables you to place

 

different pages of a job on one sheet

 

so that the sheet is filled to capacity.
