When the above job is rotated by 15°, it results in a better optimized layout. In version 12, under “Geometry” tools in unbound component editor, a new “Rotate Geometry” tool is available This resulted in wastage on layout as below: Till now Imp supported rotation by 90° angle only. Some die-cut shapes offer better interlocking if they are rotated arbitrarily. Option to “Rotate” 1Up geometry to an arbitrary angle In the final exported imposed PDF, Imp creates a layer “MarksHigh” and generates all marks with high priority in it.
#IMPOSITION WIZARD AUTOMATION REGISTRATION#
Example: The camera registration marks are placed with “High” priority. Marks of same priority are generated in same layer. The layers are generated based on set “Prioirty” for each mark.
#IMPOSITION WIZARD AUTOMATION PDF#
To generate marks in separate layers we now have a new preference “Create separate layer(s) for marks during PDF export”. This way artwork and marks are in separate layers and can be turned on or off independently, as per requirement.

Option to generate “marks” in separate layersĭownstream file processing can be easy if marks are placed in a separate layer in exported PDF. With this option selected, the components will not be rotated on the layout. To address this issue, we now have a new option in component direction “Do not rotate”. To ensure rectangular unbound jobs are not rotated on the layout, the only option available was to set the grain direction of component and press sheet. New option “Do not rotate” components on layout This feature is implemented by using Imp’s dynamic marks template that allows user to create cut-line path using geometry tools by entering dimensions using parametric expressions such as “TrimWidth” and “TrimHeight” for dimensions.Ī new option to “Import geometry from marks” is also added to the Geometry import options to facilitate import of die-lines from geometry marks. Imp V12 now supports auto-generation of cut-line path with flap along with barcode/QR code, text mark automatically to each artwork. This requires users to add the cut-line path and the flap at design stage to each artwork or can be done using automation tools like Switch. These marks are added on a tear-off flap on any edge as part of cut-path (red outline) as in illustration below: This is critical for an overall efficient workflow to add “Barcode or QR code” and “Text mark” with job metadata on each job on the layout. Smart Print & Cut workflow for bannersĪs ganging is important for overall optimization, so is the job “Metadata” for efficient identification and tracking of jobs on ganged sheets. This option works with “Rectangular nesting” algorithm only. Now, in version 12 we have a new Auto-plan option settings as highlighted below to ensure the gap between each label is uniform. This resulted in layouts with irregular gap in the beginning and end of each layout (sleeve). Till now, the gap between each label was set by static bleed value. When labels are planned for continous roll printing, the gap between each label should be uniform. Unwinding direction for labels Auto-adjustment of gap between labels for continous roll printing This can be set in unbound component properties and Imp will place the label on reel-cut layout in required orientation. Imp now supports selection of “Unwinding direction”. A new action “Check-in product” is added to Imp Flow to do this. When jobs are processed in Imp Flow, there was no option to add/save them to the "Job Database" maintained by Farm service. NEW FEATURES IN VERSION 12 Check-In function in Imp Flow After successful installation, activation window will come up.Net 5 is not installed on the system, installer will prompt and guide you to download. Right click the installer > Properties > Click on “Unblock” > Apply & OK.
