When you use CoverApplication for Perfect Binding jobs:
Do not specify: HoleMaking, Creasing, Folding, Stitching and Gathering.

Remark
A Process Node is not allowed to have a JDF child node, see [ICS-IDP].
LayoutPreparation, Imposition, Interpreting, Rendering, and DigitalPrinting must always be specified once, even if these are not used.
