Working with Chunk Collation
For a multiple copy document with collation On, there must be
enough display list memory to hold the display list blocks (R1) for all
pages in the collation range. See the “Memory” section of the
Refer-

there is not enough memory, then a chunk collation boundary is
forced after the last compiled page of the collation range.
Chunk Collation
This mechanism of introducing a forced boundary is known as chunk
collation. Chunk collation breaks a document into several smaller,
more manageable sets. For example, in the following illustration, cop-
ies “a” and “b” of each set must be manually combined to create one
collated document. The order of printing is copy 1(a), copy 2(a), copy
3(a), copy 4(a), copy 1(b), copy 2(b), copy 3(b), and copy 4(b)
.
