Open Metrix Quick Impose from Fiery Command WorkStation

Opening Metrix Quick Impose for your job automatically imposes the job on the selected sheet size. Binding and folding specifications are incorporated into the layout.

The following are required before opening a job in Metrix Quick Impose:

The job must be PDF file format.
The PDF job can have a single page if the job is flatwork.
Note: If your job is flatwork, it must be a single page with information on one or both sides.
The PDF job must have an even number of pages, specifically, 2, 6, or divisible by 4. If the job has an odd number of pages, users will be prompted to add blank pages to the job to satisfy this requirement.
The document size cannot be bigger than any substrate size supported by the press.
Substrate Catalog entries must be defined.

Import a job into the Held queue in Fiery Command WorkStation. Do not process the job, because processed jobs cannot be opened in Metrix Quick Impose.
Open the spooled job in one of the following ways:
- Right-click the job and select Metrix Quick Impose.
- Select the job and choose Metrix Quick Impose from the Actions menu.
The job opens in the Metrix Quick Impose window and a layout is automatically created. Thumbnails are generated in the background, so you can preview the content of the laid out job in Metrix Quick Impose.

Set the properties for the layout. Pause Layout Generation stops the constant generation of layouts whenever a change is made to properties.
