Modifying the layout manually
Whether you apply a predefined layout or specify custom settings, you can manually

You should specify the following settings before making any manual changes to
the layout: Orientation, Duplex, Rows, Columns, and Binding. If you specify any of
these settings after making manual changes, you will be prompted with a message
informing you that the manual changes will be cancelled.
Reordering pages in Layout mode
When you impose a job, its pages are automatically arranged in a particular order
according to the layout you select. Each page number in Layout mode represents the
page from the source document that DocBuilder Pro images in a designated position
on the finished sheet. However, to reorder individual pages manually, arrange them in
the main window. To assign a different page to a particular location in the layout, use
the following procedure.

REORDER
PAGES
1.
Verify that Layout mode is currently selected.
2.
Select the location’s current page number. You can also press Tab to move to the next
slot in the layout, or press Shift + Tab to move to the previous slot in the layout.
3.
Type the new page value and press Enter.
You can add a blank cover page by typing 0 (zero) for any page number. Page 0 will be
printed as a blank page.

When you use this procedure to reorder pages, the page number you enter
overwrites the original. For example, if you typed Page 3 in place of Page 5, you will
now have two of Page 3 and no Page 5. Also, you cannot enter a page number that
does not already exist in your job. For example, if your job has 10 pages, you cannot
type 12.
