Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is PDF Imposition?

PDF Imposition is the process of arranging a document’s pages on a printer's sheet to ensure they appear in the correct order when the final product is printed, folded, and cut.

How does the Booklet mode rearrange my pages?

Booklet imposition arranges pages in pairs on larger sheets so that after double-sided printing, folding, and stapling, the pages will be in perfect sequential order (e.g., from page 1 up to the total number).

Is there a file size limit for PDF files?
