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.

Note the following before opening a job in Metrix Quick Impose:

The job must be PDF file format.
If the job is flatwork, it must have either one or two pages.
Note: If the job has two pages, the information will be imposed on the front and back of a single page. If the job has one page, the information will be imposed only on the front.
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 list in Fiery Command WorkStation. Do not process the job, because processed jobs cannot be opened in Metrix Quick Impose.
Open the spooled job in Metrix Quick Impose 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.

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