Reply To: Multipage PDF into imposition

i'd suggest breaking the 4500 pg file up into 4500 single page pdfs and then named using bridge using the batch rename feature so that each page has a name something like 0046.pdf, 0047.pdf etc. from here, its possible to do what you want using data merge – a data file needs to be created manually.

this is how it CAN be done, but if i was doing this at my work i'd do an imposition in preps, then build a job ticket in the RIP and export either to the printer or a pdf file. whichever way it is created, it will still make a massive pdf file.

hope this makes sense.
