Single Line Nesting

• Automatic Placement:
  Images are placed automatically according to the minimum area the resulting layout requires on the print medium. You can define the spacing in-between images and the orientation of images. Automatic means the image is rotated in a way that a maximum number of images fits onto a minimum space. If Portrait (or Landscape) is selected, images are always rotated to portrait (or landscape) orientation, even though this orientation could lead to a higher paper usage.
• Maximum Job Age:
  The job is printed after it reaches the predefined time (counted after creation of the job in Nesting state). All jobs are printed after the predefined maximum time has been reached; this option cannot be deselected.
• Paper Width: (see Illustration below)
  The percentage of the paper width that is filled with images is checked after new images are added to a job in Nesting state. When the filled percentage reaches the predefined threshold, the job is printed.

Single Line Nesting.

The required percentage (60 % in this example) of the paper width is shaded in gray in the illustration (1). As soon as images (from workflows using this nesting template) fill at least 60 % of the paper width, the job will be completed and sent to the printer.

Different from Automatic Nesting, the used area is not regarded. Each line filled with images is printed as a separate job.
