inserted in the PDF to create the booklet.
Booklet types
You can choose three types of imposition: 2-up Saddle Stitch, 2-up Perfect Bound, and Consecutive.
2-up Saddle Stitch
Creates two-page, side-by-side printer spreads. These printer spreads are appropriate for printing
on both sides, collating, folding, and stapling. InDesign adds blank pages as needed to the end of the finished
document. The Space Between Pages, Bleed Between Pages, and Signature Size options are dimmed when 2-up Saddle
Stitch is selected.
Print Booklet imposes pages based on the Binding setting. If the document has a Right to Left Binding setting, Print
Booklet will impose pages accordingly. Choose File > Document Setup to view the document’s Binding setting.
2-up Perfect Bound
Creates two-page, side-by-side printer spreads that fit within the specified signature size. These
printer spreads are appropriate for printing on both sides, cutting, and binding to a cover with adhesive. If the number
of pages to be imposed is not evenly divisible by the signature size, InDesign adds blank pages as needed to the back of
the finished document.
