(v13) HqnImpose2 Halved objective
This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; both Harlequin Core and Harlequin MultiRIP
This objective is deprecated from Harlequin 13.1r0
This objective is very similar to /Paneled
, except that the area defined by MaxWidth
and MaxHeight
is successively halved until any further halving would produce a panel too small for the page size to be used. The only aspect supported is /BestFit
, and there are no strategies. While this approach is less efficient than the /Paneled
objective for sheet or full drum devices when there are few changes in page size expected to occur within a signature, it can lead to the most efficient use of film when page sizes vary often and significantly, but only when used with the /FromList
tactic and the /RespondHalved
response. If no tactic or response is defined in the call to HqnInitImpose
then these procedures will be used.
Example use:
/mm { 72. mul 25.4 div } bind def

/MaxWidth 500 mm
