For ganged jobs, you can place pages directly on a press-run layout without first setting up a run list in the Pages view. - Select the pages using any of these methods:
- In the Files list, select a PDF file or file placeholder.
Note: If the content files are not yet available, select Job > Add File Placeholder to add the required number of placeholder pages to the Files list. - In the Files list, expand a multi-page file to view its list of pages. Select a single page, or press Shift+click to select multiple pages.
- Select a PDF file from an accessible folder in the file directory.
- For press runs that already contain a layout resource, drag the selected file, page, or pages onto a template page.
The first page is assigned to the template page position, and any additional new content pages flow through the available template pages in sequence.
Note: Any existing content on the affected template pages is replaced. - For manual ganging, drag the selected pages to a position on the press sheet.
- If you drag the pages to an empty area, the pages cascade onto the sheet, and you can arrange them.
- If you drag a page to a position near an existing page on the sheet, it snaps into the default snap position that is defined in the Preferences dialog box.
- If you drag the selected pages onto a template page, the first page is assigned to the template page position, and any additional new content pages flow through the available template pages in sequence.
Note: Any existing content on the affected template pages is replaced.
- To place any remaining content pages, you can either duplicate the press run, or insert a new sheet via the Jobs menu, and repeat the steps as needed.
- In the Pages view, check the run list that was generated.
The Count column in the Files list is updated with the number of instances of each page on a press run. A value of 0 (zero) appears beside any page that is not yet assigned to a press run. |
