Consecutive: Creates a two-, three-, or four-page panel appropriate to a foldout booklet or brochure. In Consecutive mode, Bleed Between Pages, Creep, and Signature Size are not available. This mode does not provide any option for short-trimming a panel that folds in first. Print Booklet is, as the name implies, a method of printing. It does not create a new InDesign document with imposed pages, but produces a print stream with the pages in position. To use the Print Booklet function: 1. Choose File > Print Booklet, and if appropriate, pick a preset from the Print Preset menu. Or choose Current Document Settings to use the print settings in effect for the document. 2. Pick a page range, using hyphens to separate the ends of a range (for example, "1-16" to include all the pages between 1 and 16, inclusive). To choose individual pages, use commas-for example, to select pages 2, 4, 12 and 16, type "2,4,12,16" (without the quotation marks). If the document uses section starts, in the Range field you will have to enter any section numbers (such as "Sec3:16" for page 16 of Section 3). Or you may find it easier to specify the page numbers by using absolute numbering convention-just type a plus sign ("+") to indicate absolute page position. For example, to select the first eight pages of the document, type "+1 - +8" (without the quotation marks). To change settings such as printer's marks and media size, click the Print Settings button at the bottom of the Print Booklet dialog box. This takes you to the standard print dialog panels; when you've modified the settings as needed, click OK, and you'll be returned to the Print Booklet dialog box to proceed. The Setup options These options in the Print Booklet dialog box include: Space Between Pages: The gap between pages; available for all the booklet types except Saddle Stitch. In Perfect Bound booklets, the Space Between Pages value must be at least the width of the Creep value. Bleed Between Pages: Available only when 2-up Perfect Bound is selected, a value must be between zero and half the Space Between Pages value. Creep: Specifies the amount of space necessary to compensate for paper thickness and folding on each signature. Enter a positive value to push outside pages out from the spine (leaving the center spread unchanged); enter a negative value to push interior pages in, toward the spine (leaving the outside spread unchanged). Creep is available for 2-up Saddle Stitch and 2-up Perfect Bound booklets. Signature Size: The number of pages in each signature (available only for 2-up Perfect Bound). If the number of pages to be imposed is not evenly divisible by the Signature Size value, blank pages are added to the end of the document as necessary. Automatically Adjust To Fit Marks And Bleeds: Margins calculated to accommodate bleeds and printer marks. Deselect this option to set the margin values manually. Margins: Amount of space that surrounds the printer spread. Deselect Automatically Adjust To Fit Marks And Bleeds to manually set the values. Higher values increase the space beyond the marks and bleeds. Too low a value may clip the marks and bleeds. Available for all booklet types. Print Blank Printer Spreads: Determines whether blank spreads are printed. InDesign adds blank pages or spreads to the end of the document if the number of pages to be imposed is not evenly divisible by the number of pages in a signature. Preview The Preview panel allows you to view the arrangement of imposed pages, for checking crossover art, page order, creep settings, marks, and bleed. The Messages and Warning areas inform you of any problems, or whether blank pages had to be added to complete signatures. Adobe Creative Suite 4 Printing Guide 49
