The PlanetPress Design document needs to be properly set up with the N-Up object and
proper virtual pages in order to correctly use this task:
l All PlanetPress Design document templates must use the n-up object on both the front
and the back pages of the duplex document.
l Each instance of the n-up object must have the “change data page with each repeat”
option checked.
l The total number of repeats on each page (vertical X horizontal) must correspond to the
number specified in the Number of virtual pages per physical page option..
l The Alignment setting of each n-up object must be set according to the device’s
duplicating capabilities (long-edge or short edge binding).
Input
Any data file with accompanying metadata.
Processing
The metadata is re-arranged and/or duplicated in order to correspond to the options set forth in
this task's properties.
Output
The original data file is output, along with the modified metadata.
General Tab
l
Number of virtual pages that appear on each physical page: This is equivalent to the
N in N-Up. This number should be equal to the total number of virtual pages in your
PlanetPress Design document. For example, a 2 horizontal x 3 vertical is 6-up, so this
number should be 6.
l
Number of data pages that make up a single duplex virtual document: Either 1 if your
document is duplex (has a front and back), whether the back has variable data or not, or 2
if your document is simplex or the data is already properly duplicated so the front and
back already match.
On Error Tab
For a description of the options on the On Error tab see "Using the On Error tab" on page57.
