ImposeIQ Index/Bleed Tabs

Open a PDF and its bookmarks become the tabs. Print tab dividers on 3-cut to 24-cut stock, bleed tabs that run off the fore-edge as a thumb index, or both lined up — then see the finished book before it is printed.

Capabilities

Every tab in the right place, first time.

Tabs are stepped down the edge in order, the tab sheets are inserted in front of each section, and the backs are mirrored for duplex — so the document goes to the press ready to run, with the page list for the tab stock.

  • Tabs from bookmarks, page numbers or a CSV / Excel sheet — rich text from Word and RTF included
  • Tab sheets on 3-cut to 24-cut stock, bleed tabs mirrored on versos, or both together
  • 14 tab shapes, 1–3 lines, auto-fit text, bundled fonts, images and per-tab colour palettes
  • Duplex backs, reverse order, complete sets with blanks, and slip sheets
  • Book preview: spreads, page turns, the fore-edge and the closed book with its binding
  • Perfect, ring, coil, wire and tape binding shown on the side opposite the tabs
  • Die-cut files for the Duplo DPC, DSM-1000 and UD-320, with marks and QR job recall
  • Saved templates, five ready-made example jobs, and a customer proof PDF
