Basics of Imposition
Notice that:
• The folds subdivide the sheet into areas representing pages in the final booklet.
• Page numbers do not appear in book-reading order.
• Some page numbers are upside down.
Some pages must be printed upside down on the sheet in order for them to appear 
right-side up in the final booklet, and pages must also be printed out of numerical 
sequence on the sheet in order for them to appear in numerical sequence in the final 
booklet.
This process of folding paper and numbering pages to approximate the finished piece 
is called making a folding model, and it is a common first step in planning a print job. 
The folding model provides valuable information about page placement, which you 
can use to create a plan, or sketch, of how pages are placed on the sheet. This plan is 
called a layout.
DocBuilder Pro frees you from the tedious and error-prone process of creating accurate 
physical models of the imposed book in order to lay out pages. With DocBuilder Pro, 
you open the source file to be imposed and specify how many rows and columns of 
pages to image on a sheet. DocBuilder Pro simplifies this process even further by 
providing predefined layouts for common impositions such as booklets and brochures. 
You can also save your own custom layouts for easy reuse.
Printer’s marks
In addition to specifying the placement of pages on a sheet, the layout also specifies 
how the finished sheet will be cut and folded. For example, the layout specifies whether 
the large finished sheet is folded and cut to create a booklet, or simply folded (and not 
cut) like a map.
