Adobe PDF Print Engine processing in Fiery Impose and Fiery Compose or Fiery JobMaster

Fiery Impose and Fiery Compose, or Fiery JobMaster support Adobe PDF Print Engine, a PDF-based processor that allows direct processing of PDF jobs without conversion to PostScript.

You can turn on the PDF Print Engine in Configure in Command WorkStation, and you can turn it off on a per-job basis in Job Properties.

If Sheet Size is specified through Mixed media in Normal, Booklet, or Gangup product intents, then the job is processed through CPSI (Configurable PostScript Interpreter) rather than through the PDF Print Engine.

Note: Sheet Size changed in Compose product intent is supported.

These restrictions apply for imposed jobs in Job Properties:

N-up jobs with the Print border option
1-up Perfect binding jobs inside the Booklet layout option
Variable Data files other than PDF/VT

Jobs using non-supported features are processed through the PostScript interpreter.

Starting with Fiery FS600/600 Pro and later, PDF Print Engine imposition processing is supported for variable data jobs for PDF/VT files with the following exceptions:

Auto Page Rotation
Blank Page Text
Covers
Creep
Demo marks
Duplo binding type
Mixed page sizes

Mixed record lengths
Page range
Record range
