Imposition method Description
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.
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.
Nested saddle
stitch This sub-method of perfect
bound combines the saddle-
stitch imposition method and
the perfect bound imposition
method. As with saddle
stitching, pages are grouped
together and stapled or
stitched across a common
center fold. The saddle groups
are then stacked side-by-side
and glued, as with perfect
binding.
Note: This option is not
applicable to VDP jobs.
