Imposition

Imposition is one of the fundamental steps in the prepress printing process. It consists in the arrangement of the printed product’s pages on the printer’s sheet, in order to obtain faster printing, simplify binding and reduce paper waste.

Correct imposition minimizes printing time by maximizing the number of pages per impression, reducing cost of press time and materials. To achieve this, the printed sheet must be filled as fully as possible.

The arrangement of pages on the printer’s sheet is affected by five different parameters:

• Format of the product: The size of the finished page determines how many pages can be printed on a single sheet.
• Number of pages of the printed product: The compositor must determine how many sheets are to be printed to create a finished book.
