Previewing and Manipulating Jobs
Merging jobs
Merging allows you to combine documents from different sources into a single file. For
example, you can combine covers and chapter head pages created in a page layout
application with text pages created in a word processing application. Or, you can
customize a slide presentation by inserting slides from a different presentation.

When printing a merged job, Command WorkStation or Command
WorkStation LE generally gives priority to the print settings of the original jobs over
those of the merged job. Before merging two jobs, make sure that both jobs have been
processed using the common print settings desired for final output. For example, to
create a merged job that prints to duplexed pages, make sure both original jobs have
been processed with the duplex setting enabled. Overriding the print settings of a
merged job can produce unexpected results and is not recommended.

When you preview two jobs and merge them, and then save it to your local
client workstation, when you import the merged file, it will return to the original file
and will not be merged.
