Mid-Range Imposition software

So far we’ve looked at affordable imposition software, at http://www.impositionsoftware.com/, and also, the industry strength inOp2. Quite Imposing is a family of Imposition Software for Adobe’s Acrobat 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0.

The family comprises Quite Imposing and its sister product, Quite Imposing Plus so creating booklets or arranging complex imposition layouts has never been easier and all without leaving Acrobat!

A particularly important feature of the plug-ins is that the combined pages are a new PDF document, giving a way to check each sheet instantly, saving time and money.

Quite Imposing Plus has options to add numbers to pages, to cover things with "masking tape", or add a page from a PDF file over any other page at any scale.

Both plug-ins can also re-order pages, split or merge even and odd pages, and more. The most popular feature may be an easy to use booklet maker, which can make a foldable booklet from just about any PDF file. They both work completely visually in Acrobat, and you choose which files to print, save for later, or throw away.

Quite Imposing retails for £249, whereas it’s sister product retails for £499. However, at http://www.impositionsoftware.com/, there is a £19.99 alternative.
