Re-order Pages for Repeat Imposition

Post by justin »

Should it be possible to use the Reorder Pages action to set a file up with pages for multiple saddle-stitch pages to impose correctly? For example a file with 2 8-page saddle-stitch books would be re-ordered from:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16

into

1,2,3,4,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,5,6,7,8

Reorder pages should just put them in the order you define.
Should look like this, and you see the resulting page order below

If the previous action was "split pages in half", then "reorder pages" tends to be bugged.
I made a quick test with the expected sequence: 1,2,3,4, 9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16, 5,6,7,8

After "split pages in half" i am getting : 1,2,3,4, 8,10,11,12,13,14,15, 9,5,6,7.
The "9" somehow jumps after "15".
