Main puzzle software introduction

The dedicated version of the dedicated software is used to configure the correct pages for multiple pages, as well as the solutions to various problems that arise from imposition. Such as: the number of pages, the number of pages per sheet, the size of the bleeding, the size of the crop, cutting marks, crosshairs, color control strips, binding methods, creep adjustments, and the like.

At present, the major imposition software is:
1. Impostrip and Impress (Ultimate Technographics)
2. Imposition and Imposition Lite (DK&A)
3. Preps (Scenic Soft Corporation)
4. Presswise (Luminous Corporation)

The above professional software are all used for PS file imposition. All the basic operations for page layout can be performed on different sizes of the table paper. They can also accurately control the saddle stitching and other methods of binding. They are suitable for flat or rotary presses. Can deal with the phenomenon of creep in the binding.

Two RIP methods

The first type of RIP method The first page to spell big version and send branch RIP, this is the most common way. Advantages: Completion of layout and trapping of each page, followed by page layout work, and production of OPI (Open Prepress Interface) instructions (for high and low resolution image calls when used in RIP) The output file is finally sent to RIP for processing. The reason for this type of process is that the capacity of any RIP-processed file will become larger. When dealing with, it is also not suitable for transmission and access via the network. First of all, the big version and then RIP can reduce this problem. In addition, since various types of imposition software are mainly based on processing PS files, the layout software must output the prepared pages in the file format of PS or EPS before the imposition operation (DK&A's Imposition is an exception. This is a time-consuming job. At the same time, since PS files are usually much larger than the original files of the application software, they will take more time to process the files and require a large amount of hard disk storage space.

The second type of RIP The first RIP page, then the big version, which is suitable for packaging, labels and other printing range. This workflow simplifies how to modify the final document. If you find that a page contains a typographical error, you only need to re-RIP the page once you have fixed the error and replace the original error. This is much more convenient than reusing the entire large version as a RIP.

Several major professional layout software introduction


1, Impostrip Second Generation 5.1
Production Company: Ultimate Technographics Inc
Applicable operating platforms: Macintosh, Windows, Unix
Selling Price: $4995
This is a typical "post-ripple RIP" software that is compatible with many professional software for color separation, typesetting, and trapping. This set of software provides a set of sample display of how to print, allowing the user to select according to the type and size of the paper, single-color or multi-color printing, lithography or rotary machine. Each sample contains a trim mark and Crosshairs also contain a different set of color guides.

When using, you can first execute an "Origami" software, use it to simulate the actual paper folding after printing, tell the user how to configure the position of each page on each paper, which is helpful for beginners. In addition, Impostrip has a nice feature that will replace the wrong page with a blank page on the big page; if a page generates an error while the RIP is in progress, the software will automatically generate a blank page and replace it with the original error page. The location. In this way, RIP can not only complete the output operation as usual, but also will not cause a crash due to handling the wrong page. After RIP is completed, the user can perform page error correction, re-do a RIP output, and then manually put into the original large version, saving A lot of time.

The company also introduced a trapping software: Trapeze, which was first implemented after RIP. When using this software with Impostrip, you can make trap settings first. Then, Trapeze will generate a low-resolution version of the file with the built-in RIP (Impostrip will later produce a high-resolution output file). Trapeze can check the output file for output and check each one on the table. Whether a page is aligned, whether the fonts and images are complete and other problems are checked.

If users want to do digital printing such as Chromapress (Agfa) or Indigo E-1000 Printer, Ultimate offers another set of independent imposition software: Impress, which has 130 sets of filters to accept multiple file formats and one Auto-provisioning function: Once the user sets the number of pages included in the table, the type of press, the size of the paper, the thickness, etc., Impress will automatically generate a large version of the file, including folding marks and pre-crawling. Leave space, then users can send this large version of the file to the RIP of the press for processing.

2.Inposition 2.0
Manufacturer: DK&A Inc Operating Platform: Mac
Selling Price: $2995
The company claims that the software is the only software in the market that can accept the original file formats of QuarkXPress, PageMaker, and Photoshop. It can also handle files in TIFF, PICT, EPS, and PS formats, and can directly process original files. It is important and useful: Because the original file capacity is small, which can reduce the time to process and transfer files, by using Imposition, users can configure page files produced by PageMaker and QuarkXPress to be simultaneously configured in a single platform. The function is based on the Tempus plug-in program developed by DK&A. Apart from smoothing the input of the original file, Tempus can also make the editing of pages in a piece of paper smoother. Imposition can actively create links to The original file on the page. If the user wants to edit a page, he can easily use the mouse to enter PageMaker or QuarkXPress to edit this file. When the user changes the page content, the large version of the content will also be automatically updated, when the user will have fallen. When the large version file is sent to RIP, Imposition will automatically retrieve the actual page data for processing.

The main reason why many users choose this software is that the user does not have to create a PS file before the imposition. In this way, even when the user calls to change the design at the last minute, the user can update the large version content with little time. DK&A also manufactures the Impostition Lite Xtension software, which allows users of the Mac version of QuarkXpress to output a four-page version to any PS output device.

3. Preps 3.0
Manufacturer: Scenic Soft Inc
Applicable platforms: Mac, Windows
Price: Pro version: $6995, plus version: $3995, XL version: $2995.
Preps is the only software that can use the RIP page to directly make a large version of the software, which makes the software very suitable for the packaging file layout operation, Preps allows users to mix different file types, page size and direction, and for various Pages are used to set cutting marks and crosshairs, respectively. Users can also place different types of prints on the same piece of paper, such as general carton packaging or label printing.

There are three versions of Preps:
1) Light version: Preps XL is designed to output jobs on demand.
2) Advanced Edition: Preps Plus, commonly used in advanced prepress workflows.
3) Preps Pro: full-featured imposition software, suitable for a variety of work processes and output device work environment, the software has a built-in color separation function, which means that you can choose to use the 4-color synthesis method for proofing or The output is based on the four-color color separation method for the web or plate. The user can control the settings of each monochrome screen angle and trapping, and it also has a complete PS previewer to ensure that each page is correct when it is processed by RIP.

4 Pres wise3.0
Manufacturer: Luminous Technology Corp
Applicable operating platform: Mac.
Selling price: $3995
This software is suitable for commercial output of general printers, as well as monochromatic or four-color output of publications and books. The software is said to be able to accept any type of major typesetting software on any platform and generate PS files for imposition. Press Wise also contains a set of sample libraries, which can also be used to create specific styles for different purposes. It allows users to read pages from multiple documents for imposition operations, and also controls web corners and ink settings. It also allows users to insert blank pages and remove them later. It can be exported to any PS device, such as: laser printers, electronic color separation machines, digital prepress equipment, offset printing machines, and direct plate-making machines. and many more.
