what does imposition mean
Its very common for printers to use an expression like 4-up, 8-up 0r 10-up. Despite it being as hot as it has been in Southeast Pennsylvania the past few days, these are not references to cans of soda. They are actually all expressions to describe the imposition of a project onto a page for printing. Imposition simply refers to the way a sheet of paper is laid out for printing. When a file is processed in pre-production an operator will work with the pressman to determine the best orientation, position and order for a work to be printed.
