Using variable marks in an Imposition Plan
In Preps, create a template. Add variable marks to the template. Note: In Preps, use the $[xxxxx] variable marks. When you add variable marks to the template, leave enough space between each variable mark to ensure that the populated variable marks do not overlap each other. Use the template in a Preps job. PrintText-mark variables
When you add code words called variables to your text marks, their values are derived from the job details and included in the output. Notes: Text-mark variable names are not case-sensitive. Before Asian or other Unicode fonts can be rendered in text marks, the CJK text-mark profile options must be correctly settext-mark variable
Code words that you can build into text marks to automatically include specific types of information about the press run and job; can be combined with literal text when building a text mark Published by Scroll Versions from space PREPS and version 11Retrieving a variable value
Each type of variable requires a unique prefix to reference it. Type Prefix Example Global $ %$SomeGlobalVariable% Rule Set … , if you assign a temporary variable named JobName directly to an action parameter, the selected variable name is converted to a variable reference stringAssigning a value to a variable
To assign a value to a variable while a rule set is executing, you must use the Set Variables action. From within an instance of the action, you can assign multiple variable values at once. You must create the variable before you can assign a value to it. To set a value, add a Set Variables action to the rule chainVariable marks and imposition job tickets
You can include variable marks in an imposition plan and submit the imposition file to the system. When you apply a process template to a signature or layout that is based on the imposition file, the system executes the process template and populates the variable marks in the signature or layout.

There are two root events which can be used to monitor the changing of variable values. The Global Variables Changed root event can be used to monitor global variables from any rule set it is included in, and the Ruleset Variables Changed root event can be used to monitor rule set variables in the rule setVariable marks and imposition job tickets
