For ganged jobs, you can place pages directly on a press-run layout without first setting up a run list in the Pages view.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
