Impositions and Perfect Bound Books
A perfect bound book consists of signatures gathered next to
each other, not nested, so that they can be attached together at
the bind edge with glue. The groups are in multiples of 4 pages
(1 printed output sheet with 2 images on the front and 2 on the
back).
The page images are automatically centered within the page
frame. The user may request an Image Shift. This will shift the
entire page frame on the output sheet. Margins may also be
specified; these will reduce the size of a page frame. The
system must then reduce the image to fit within the smaller
page frame. If Image Shifts are combined with Margins, the
image cannot move outside the margin. Therefore, any part of
the image that goes outside of the margin will be cropped.

back side of the signature sheet.
