The Imposition Control Panel is designed as an easy way to use all of the functions offered by Quite Imposing. You never need to use the control panel, as all functions can be reach directly from the Plug-ins menu, but using the menu is likely to be slower.
The control panel has a lot of buttons, but they are divided into groups to make it easier to find the function you want.
Along the top of the control panel are a special series of buttons: Control , Sequences , Manual , Info , Close . This series appears on several different screens, and can be used to switch between them. This is already the control panel, so the Control button does nothing.The Sequences button switches to Automation sequences . The Manual button switches to Manual Imposition , and the Info button switches to Imposition Info .
The Close button will close the window.
The other buttons are in groups, and are as follows.
Easy imposition: Create booklet , n-Up Pages , Step And Repeat , Join Two Pages .
Page management: Shuffle Even/Odd Pages , Shuffle Pages For Imposing , Reverse Pages , Trim And Shift , Insert Blank Pages , Create Sample Document , Tile pages .
Stick on: Stick On Text and Numbers , Stick On Masking Tape .
Peel off: Peel Off Text and Numbers , Peel Off Masking Tape , Peel Off Registration Marks .
Memory: Remember Last Action , Playback Action .
The control panel contains a button marked with a question mark (?). This opens the Help Centre.
There is also a button marked with two question marks (??) in the Control Panel and the Help Centre. This opens the About Quite Imposing dialog, where you can check licensing information and get your serial number. Click License to enter the serial number you have purchased.
You can now customize the Quite Imposing
Control panel to include more, or less, buttons. In addition
you can set up as many other panels as you like, for special purposes or jobs,
or to help you organise your work.
If you create a new panel you can choose to
show it using the My Panels menu. The customizing of panels is done
using a right click on any panel.
There is always a special panel called [Custom
control pane]. You can switch between this and the standard panel at any
time.
To create a panel you can use the main plug-in menu item My panels
> New panel or you can right click on any panel and choose Panels
> New panel.
You will be able to
choose the new panel name, which defaults to My panel (with a number
added if needed to make the name unique). You have these choices for the
contents of the panel, ready for editing.
Changes are saved
immediately, and there is no “undo”.
You can add the
following items to panels.
Via right click you
have these options on editing a panel.
Some users have set up a number of customised panels for different jobs. To speed up opening them you can use the new Master panel list. In the plug-in menu go to My Panels > Master panel list. This has a button for each different panel.
You can also choose to have panels start automatically when Acrobat is started. There are two ways to control this. It is available for the standard control panel, for all the customized panels, and for the master panel list.
Sometimes it may not be convenient to start the panels automatically. You can suspend automatic startup of all panels. This option is, as above, available from right clicking on any panel, or from the Show at startup in the plug-in menu.
