ImposeIQ Suite · Saddle stitch · Perfect binding
ImposeIQ Book
The page order, the spine width and the cover all depend on each other. Book works the three out from what you already know: the page count, the stock and the machine you are running on.
Capabilities
The Imposer, held to book work.
Book is built on the Imposer’s own engine — the same loader, live sheet preview, signature nesting, creep, DC marks, cutter XML and templates — so anyone who can drive the Imposer can drive this. Binding is the choice that matters, and perfect binding adds the cover.

- One signature stack per sheet, or two-up signatures slit apart afterwards
- Creep, signature nesting, DC marks and cutter XML from the Imposer
