Cheap Impostor

If you're looking for a cost-effective alternative to high-end imposition software, then Cheap Impostor is definitely worth checking out. While it may not have all the bells and whistles of pricier options, it's more than capable of meeting the needs of anyone who wants to print and bind booklets, magazines, or even long books. In fact, if you're looking to transform large PDF files into bound books, Cheap Impostor could be the ideal tool for the job.

So, what does this software do? Let's say you've written a document and you want to turn it into a magazine. You want the magazine to be the size of a sheet of paper folded in half. Without imposition software, you'd have to use a photocopier to shrink and rearrange the pages so that two of them fit sideways on a sheet of paper. Then, if you stacked and stapled them together and folded them in half, the pages would be in the correct order. It's a bit of a hassle, to say the least.

Cheap Impostor, however, lets you skip the photocopier step altogether. With this software, you can produce output from your printer that can be turned directly into a magazine. Plus, you can customize the settings to create books with multiple signatures, making it easier to produce content in large quantities.

Some of the key features of Cheap Impostor include the ability to impose PDF files for books and magazines, reorder pages for books and magazines (with the ability to vary the number of sheets per signature), and take 1-up PDF input to produce 2-up output PDF. The software also comes with an easy-to-read guide to help you understand how to use it effectively.

If you decide to register the software, you'll gain access to several additional features, including page zoom and inside offset controls, margin "creep" compensation, and printer center adjustment. All in all, Cheap Impostor is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a simple yet effective imposition software at an affordable price.
