Imposition

N Imposed Pages: Specify the number of logical pages arranged in a physical page. 2, 4, 8,
and 16 can be specified with 16 pages as the maximum value.

N-up in Row: Specify the number of logical pages arranged in the horizontal direction in a
physical page.

When the number of imposed pages is 2, only 2 can be specified.

When the number of imposed pages is 4, 2 and 4 can be specified.

When the number of imposed pages is 8 or 16, only 4 can be specified.

Setting 2 as the number of pages in row will generate one binding margin.

Setting 4 as the number of pages in row will generate one longitudinal gutter and two
binding margins.

Landscape set to 2 generates one binding margin.

Landscape set to 4 generates one vertical gutter and two binding margins.

If two pages are imposed vertically as a result of landscape setting, one horizontal gutter is
generated; if four pages are imposed vertically, three horizontal gutters are generated.

Both the vertical and horizontal gutter widths default to 70 dots (300 dpi).

The default binding margin width is zero dot.

Because all logical pages are equally assigned, the size of each logical page can be worked
out by solving the equation.

Logical page width = (Paper Width - Vertical gutter width ¥ Number of vertical gutters +
Binding margin width ¥ Number of binding margins) ³ Number of imposed pages

Logical page height = (Paper height - Horizontal gutter width ¥ Number of horizontal
gutters) ¥ Number of pages in row ³ Number of imposed pages

* Remainder is rounded off.

If the number of longitudinally arranged pages becomes 2 as the result of setting the number
of pages in row, one lateral gutter will be generated. When it becomes 4, three lateral gutters
will be generated.

The default width of both the longitudinal and lateral gutters is 70 dots (300 dpi).

The default binding margin is 0 dot.
