Auto Impose button
Opens the Auto Impose window where you define the settings for automatic imposition.
Set Up Auto Impose (Hot Tickets)
For Hot Tickets, the Set Up Auto Impose button is enabled if the number of pages or the page size of the product are to be taken from the input. Click this button to select the Auto Impose settings for the from input ticket. Then click OK to store the Auto Impose settings and close Auto Impose without actually creating the imposition. Once the Auto Impose settings have been defined for a from input ticket, and the imposition prepared in the case of a fixed imposition ticket, the Run Auto Impose check box is enabled and displays a summary of the Auto Impose settings. Select this check box to ensure that the jobs created from the Hot Ticket are imposed. At this stage you can still go back to the settings by clicking the Set Up Auto Impose button.
Edit Imposition button
Opens the Product View where you can create the imposition interactively – also referred to as manual imposition. You will create the Assembly, choose the Folding Schemes, etc.
Edit Imposition with Layout Editor button
Only for Unbound Flat Single-Sided jobs for which this option has been selected in the Product Editor. Opens the Layout Editor where elements can be arranged. The button is only enabled if the imposition is set to Undefined.
Press Sheet Layout
A drop-down list with all the available press sheet layouts. Initially, the default sheet layout as specified for the chosen press is selected (from press). You can choose a different layout and revert to the default by clicking the revert icon. Clicking the arrow icon takes you to the Press Sheet Layout editor where you can modify the binding options specifically for the current job.
Impose TP
Clicking the arrow icon takes you to the Impose parameter set view in the Plan tab, if it is present in the plan. Otherwise, it only takes you as far as the Plan tab.
