Printing booklets
Although you probably use a dedicated imposition solution for complex
imposed pagination, it can sometimes be helpful to print simple
paginated comp versions of a multipage document to visualize the final
pagination. The Print Booklet feature in InDesign (File > Print Booklet)
allows you to do this, without tying up a workstation devoted to
imposition. However, the Print Booklet feature is no substitute for
dedicated imposition software, especially since your final printing files
are likely to be PDF files, not native InDesign files. It is preferable to
generate imposed mechanical proofs via your imposition software,
using final files.
There are three configurations available in Print Booklet: 2-up Saddle
Stitch, 2-up Perfect Bound, and Consecutive (which includes 2-up, 3-up
and 4-up Consecutive). You can also pick a page range for the
imposition. The modes of imposition are:
2-up Saddle Stitch: Creates two-page printer spreads, which can be
duplexed, collated, folded and stapled. If necessary to complete the
pagination, blank pages are added to the end of the document. The
options for Space Between Pages, Bleed Between Pages, and Signature
Size are not available in Saddle Stitch mode.
2-up Perfect Bound: Creates two-page printer spreads for duplexing
and trimming on all four sides of the pages, to be bound into to a cover
with a spine. If the number of pages can’t be evenly divided by the
number of pages in a signature, InDesign adds blank pages to the end of
the document.
Consecutive: Creates a two-, three-, or four-page panel appropriate to a
foldout booklet or brochure. In Consecutive mode, Bleed Between
Pages, Creep, and Signature Size are not available. This mode does not
provide any option for short-trimming a panel that folds in first.
Print Booklet is, as the name implies, a method of printing. It does not
create a new InDesign document with imposed pages, but produces a
