What book · perfect bound does
Impose separate folded sections for perfect binding. Choose pages per section and whether to pad the final section.
The normal workflow
- 1Open your file. Drop a PDF (or PNG/JPEG) in — Book · perfect bound reads the page size and count and suggests a starting setup.
- 2Check the auto layout. The sheet, count and marks are picked for you. The live preview shows exactly what will print.
- 3Adjust what matters. Change only the settings that need it — everything else stays on its suggested value.
- 4Export the imposed sheet. Download a print-ready PDF, or send it straight to print — processed locally, nothing uploaded.
