About DesignMerge PDF Imposer
DesignMerge PDF Imposer is a unique, flexible, and professional-grade imposition tool that eliminates the need for third-party applications. Operating entirely inside Adobe InDesign, the software supports all common imposition styles, including N-up, Variable Data, Step & Repeat, Label Sort (for label presses and cutters/slitters), and 2-up Saddle Stitch booklets.
At the heart of PDF Imposer is the Meadows Imposition Designer interface, which lets users create templates using standard InDesign documents. Powered by Meadows' patent-pending Imposition Frame™ technology, the tool offers precise, flexible positioning, rotation, and manual control, making even complex layouts (such as Staggered and Dutch Cut) easy to produce.
PDF Imposer can be used as a standalone imposition solution or integrated with other production tools. Tight integration with DesignMerge Pro enables the creation of fully imposed, personalized variable data jobs in a single pass. Additionally, compatibility with Enfocus Switch allows for complete automation of imposition and variable data workflows.
"Our DesignMerge customers have long asked for a fast, flexible, and affordable imposition solution," said John Kriho, President of Meadows. "PDF Imposer delivers exactly that. Template design is intuitive, and our PDF Imposition Engine is among the fastest available, especially for variable data applications."
