Quite Imposing Plus is an Adobe Acrobat plug-in that allows you to manage page-imposition tasks quickly and easily. Quite Imposing is the industries favourite imposition solution for Adobe Acrobat and quickly combines pages into larger sheets, ready for printing. Check each sheet instantly, save time and money by avoiding errors. Then add pages, re-order pages, split or merge even/odd pages and number or even tile your pages - without leaving Adobe Acrobat. That's the fast, cost-effective way to produce finished products for either digital or conventional printing. Imposition solutions have traditionally been geared toward professional users but Quite Imposing Plus is very different - it's easy to learn and simple to use even for beginners. It enables anyone to master the imposition process without extensive training or complex job setups. Every operator will be able to arrange and rearrange pages, trim pages and accomplish a whole range of imposition tasks that will make your print production faster and more cost efficient.
Features include n-up, booklet making (i.e. creating saddle-stitched books), cropping pages, adding crop marks, re-ordering pages, scaling to make pages larger or smaller, adding whitespace, re-positioning text & graphics on pages, adding page numbers, adding Bates numbers, adding arbitrary text and variable text such as the document filename, masking out (obscuring) text & graphics, and much more.
And for high end, automated production requirements, Quiet Hot Imposing is the perfect solution. It provides completely automated imposition by simply dropping a PDF into a hot folder. Hot folders have pre-defined imposition templates assigned to them and immediately produce the required imposition to a pre-determined output folder. Additionally, Quite Hot Imposing can be seamlessly integrated with Enfocus Switch using the Quite configurator. This solution provides enormously powerful and limitless workflow/imposition and automation capabilities and it extensively used my many customers locally and globally.
