binding methods. As with saddle stitching, pages are grouped
together and stapled or stitched across a common center fold. The
saddle groups are then stacked one on top of another and glued,
as with perfect binding.
When imposing a book for nested saddle binding, specify the
number of pages in each saddle group by entering a value in the
Groups of field. As the number of pages in a saddle group
increases, the effect known as binder’s creep becomes more
prevalent (see
). DocBuilder Pro shifts images on the
page to compensate automatically for creep, according to the
value in the Groups of field, the value in the paper thickness field,
the specified binding type, and the ordering and orientation of
pages specified by the current layout.
Gang Up
To enable gang printing and disable binding settings, select Gang
Up. In gang printing, you place multiple pages on a sheet for
“collate and cut” finishing, rather than having DocBuilder Pro
impose them in the order required by a particular binding method.
A collate and cut layout reorders pages in a manner that causes
them to fall into easily collated stacks when the sheets in the job
are cut into individual pages. The use of such a layout may allow
multiple small jobs to be printed on a single sheet; thus, gang
printing is commonly used as a means of saving paper when
printing small jobs on printers that use large sheets, and when
printing jobs such as business cards or labels.
To disable gang printing and enable binding settings, select the
Binding setting. When gang printing is disabled, DocBuilder Pro
imposes pages in the order defined by the current layout.
You can specify any of the following Gang Up methods:
