Image shift

Remark

There is no range check on the shift values.

Take the media orientation into account: the X axis and the Y axis are the same as for /Media/@Dimension.

Image shift is only supported for the PDF path.

Shift the sides of individual pages

@ShiftFront | @ShiftBack = "X Y"

The amount in X and Y direction by which the content must be shifted on the front and/or back side of a page. The X and Y lengths are specified using the following conventions: X origin is left, Y origin is bottom of the media orientation.

To crop the content of shifted pages, use: LayoutPreparationParams/PageCell/ImageShift

If not specified, ShiftBack must be calculated from ShiftFront so that the content remains aligned, even after folding.

  • Syntax to shift the front sides of individual pages

    XPath: //LayoutPreparationParams/PageCell/ImageShift/@ShiftFront

    When partitioned

    XPath: //LayoutPreparationParams[@PartIDKeys="RunIndex"]/LayoutPreparationParams[@RunIndex="…"]/PageCell/ImageShift/@ShiftFront

  • Syntax to shift the back sides of individual pages

    XPath: //LayoutPreparationParams/PageCell/ImageShift/@ShiftBack

Shift the sides of individual pages after folding (booklet)

The amount in X and Y direction by which the content must be shifted on the front and/or back side of a page of a booklet. The X and Y lengths are specified using the following conventions: X origin is left, Y origin is bottom of the media orientation.

Only needed for booklets and only if front shift and back shift are unrelated.

If in a booklet the ShiftBack mirrors the ShiftFront, then only the ShiftFront has to be specified.

Shift the sides of the complete imposition

@ShiftFront | @ShiftBack = "X Y"

The amount in X and Y direction by which the content is to be shifted on the front and/or back side of the document. The X and Y lengths are specified using the following conventions: X origin is left, Y origin is bottom of the media orientation.

If not specified, ShiftBack must be calculated from ShiftFront so that the content remains aligned.

To print the whole content of the shifted pages, even outside the finished pages, use: LayoutPreparationParams/ImageShift
