Some of the most common impositions are illustrated
in the next pages. These appear for reference only and
do not imply suitability or practicality.
To assist you in planning any folding job, first fold a
"Dummy" by hand. Use the most logical layout to avoid
unnecessary folding problems such as air pockets and
adverse grain effects. If the stock or imposition is un-
usual, try running a sample on the folder BEFORE
PRINTING.
In order to use this imposition guide correctly,
it is necessary to refer to the plates in each section
as follows:
Parallel Plates - #1 (up fold)
Crosscarrier - #1 (up fold)
FOUR PAGE

When planning a form, check your folded "Dummy"
for proper page numbers and correct guide edges.
As illustrated, the sheets are visualized lying on the
feed table. The end toward the rollers is marked
"HEAD." Illustrations of the folded product are shown
as delivered to the delivery table.
The numbers on the illustrations indicate the page
number of the final folded product. Page numbers within
circles indicate the page numbers on the side which
woukd face down on the feed table. Letters are used
instead of numbers for pieces without distinct pages.
When folded, letter surfaces will be face-to-face.
