Double punching

When a second punch (for finishers capable of double punch) in the middle of the media is required, this can be specified by specifying a second HoleMaking and HoleMakingParams with @HoleType S-generic with same @Orientation and additionally @Center. Note that the exact value of @Center will be ignored. The finisher will always do the second punch halfway on the sheet, compared to the first punch.

Example: Punching with 2 holes

<JDF Types="LayoutPreparation Imposition Interpreting Rendering DigitalPrinting HoleMaking">
    <ResourcePool>
        <HoleMakingParams ID="res_9" HoleType="R2-generic" />
    </ResourcePool>
    <ResourceLinkPool>
        <HoleMakingParamsLink rRef="res_9" Usage="Input" />
    </ResourceLinkPool>
</JDF>
