Consecutive
2-up Perfect Bound divided in four signatures
If a booklet has a color cover and black-and-white insides, you can create two separate impositions from the same document: one for the front
cover, inside front cover, inside back cover, and back cover; and one for the 24 pages inside the booklet. To produce the color signature, click
Range in the Pages area of the Setup area, and type 1-2, 27-28 (or whatever the section page numbers are). To produce the black-and-white
insides, type 3-26 in the Range text box.
28-page booklet with a color cover
A. Color signature for cover B. Black-and-white inside page
Creates a two-, three-, or four-page panel appropriate for a foldout booklet or brochure. The Bleed Between Pages, Creep, and
Signature Size are dimmed when a Consecutive option is selected.
For example, if you want to create printer spreads for a traditional six-panel, trifold brochure, choose 3-up Consecutive. You may be accustomed to
setting up trifolds as one page with three different columns. With InDesign imposition, you can simply create pages that are the size of each panel.
