Templates & Examples

Templates & Examples Window

This is the initial window you encounter upon opening Imposition Studio. Here, you will find access to templates, examples, and recently opened layout files. Currently, there are over 200 imposition layout templates available. You can use them as a template or craft your own layouts using the  Auto Layout Assistant . Additionally, you have the option to save any previously created layout as a reusable template for future use, which will be stored in the 'User Templates' section of the list. If you are new to Imposition Studio, we recommend trying the layouts listed in the Example section first.
