Bottling Rules
 |
The Bottling Rules resource provides settings to compensate for page skewing, i.e. the rotation of the inner pages of a Fold Sheet. Page skewing is caused by cross-folding a sheet and increases when multiple cross-folds are required or multiple cross-folded sheets are combined. The selected rule will rotate the pages to compensate the fanning of the signature.
A bottling rule can be selected for a the whole web-fed product or a specific part in the Products tab.
NOTE: This option requires a special license.
NOTE: Bottling is only supported for web printing, not for sheet-fed printing.

Bottling Rules Overview
The Bottling Rules dialog box lists all available Bottling Rules sets in the left column and the settings for each set in the right column.
Name
The name of the installed rules set or the name of your own rules set.
Compensate Page Skew
Several methods ranging from automatic to manual are available for compensating page skew cause by folding. Manual compensation refers to the use of a bottling table with pre-established rotation values, which may or may not be present in the Web Production Scheme (WPS). Automatic compensation is based on page creep.
Only when WPS has own bottling table
Select the check box to apply bottling only if the WPS has a bottling table. Leave this check box unchecked to apply bottling to all Web Production Schemes. In the latter case, bottling is applied according to the bottling table if present and bottling based on creep (automatic) is applied to the other schemes.
See “Bottling Table button”.
WPS Bottling Table - Adjust for stock thickness and page size
Adjustment for thickness is applied if the table has a reference value for Stock thickness. The page size will be adjusted if the table has a reference value for Height. This setting only applies if the WPS has a bottling table.
Automatic Creep-based Bottling
Automatic bottling applies simplified adjustments based on page creep. Takes effect if the Only when WPS has own bottling table is not selected.
Maximum Bottling
Specify the absolute value of the maximum angle for the bottling. This limits the rotation of those layers that would require more.
Bottling Multiplier
Enter a value greater than the default 1 to apply a multiplier to pre-established bottling values (e.g. for a newer version of a product).
