How Should I Impose My Printing Project?

Client artwork should always be submitted as individual pages. This applies not only to single printed pieces such as business cards, forms, brochures, etc., but to booklets and catalogs as well.

Correct imposition will set the maximum number of images per printing impression, but will also accommodate other job considerations:

  • Page format such as bleeds, finished size, and so forth.
  • Number of separate pages and the total page count.
  • Variable data format.
  • Paper stock layout considerations such as grain direction, watermarks, textures, etc.
  • Book binding methods.
  • Finishing operations such as cutting, scoring, perforating, and folding.

Our automated software will automatically set up your printing project to accommodate every job consideration and minimize cost.
