Layout: Select the order in which the n-up object repeats the page. You use this option when you are
printing in duplex mode, have an n-up object on both of the two pages that print duplex, and need to
control how the contents of the two pages align. The image and text on the front of the invitation should
have the same orientation as the text on the back of the invitation, so that when the recipient turns it
over, they do not have to rotate it to read the text. You use the Repeat order option in each n-up object
to ensure the proper alignment of the front and back of the postcard. Each of the options here define
both a starting point and direction for the repeat.
Data options
Change data page with each repeat: Select to change the data page at each repeat. Clear to use the
same data page for all repeats. If you select this option, be sure you understand the implications of the
data page changes for any other objects in the document that use data selections. This option is not
available in documents that use a user-defined emulation.
Skip empty data page: Select to skip any empty data pages. Clear to execute a repeat with a data
page even when that data page is empty.
Skip repeat when page condition is false: Use this option to control whether the n-up object leaves
an empty repeat when a page condition set on the virtual page resolves to False. Select to prevent the
n-up object from leaving an empty repeat of the virtual page if the page condition on the virtual page
resolves to False. Clear to have the n-up object leave an empty repeat of the virtual page when the
condition resolves to False.
Advance data page before executing: Select to advance to the next data page before executing this
n-up object. Clear to start executing this n-up object with the current data page. This option determines
whether a data page change occurs after the last repeat in one n-up object, before the first repeat in the
next n-up object.
7. Click Manipulation and define any constraints you want to set on moving, or selecting the n-up object
with the mouse or with keyboard shortcuts.
Note that you cannot resize an n-up object using the mouse or keyboard shortcuts. You resize an n-up
object by manually adjusting its Width and Height properties, and resize the contents of an n-up object
by adjusting the N-up options of the object.
8. Click Snapping points to set either or both snapping points for the n-up object.
9. If necessary, add PlanetPress Talk code to the object.
▪ In the N-Up properties dialog box, click PlanetPress Talk before to enter PlanetPress Talk code
that you want the document to execute before it executes the n-up object, or click PlanetPress
Talk after to enter PlanetPress Talk code that you want the document to execute after it executes
the n-up object.
10. Click Repeat to set the Repeat properties for the n-up object.
11. Click OK.
8.2.12 Add or Remove Overlays
To add or remove overlays:
1. In the Structure area or in the Page area, select the page and double-click on it to display the Page
properties dialog box for the page to which you want to add, or from which you want to remove,
overlays.
2. In the Page properties dialog box, click Overlays, and select the overlay pages you want to add to this
page, and/or clear the overlay pages you want to remove from the page. You can also adjust the order
in which you want to layer the overlays.
Underlays: Select the overlay pages you want to place under this page, and clear any overlays you do
not want to place under the page. All overlay pages in the document appear in this list. PlanetPress
Design layers the selected pages under this page, in the order in which they occur in the list (topmost
page in the list becomes the bottommost layer). You can drag and drop the items in the list to control
the order in which PlanetPress Design layers the overlays.
Overlays: Select the overlay pages you want to place on top of this page, and clear any overlays you
do not want to place on top of the page.
