A system and method to print graphic documents in booklet format. The system allows the user to have a booklet print option available as a print option of a graphic editor. The system generates a plurality of graphic pages, and orders the pages into logical sequences, each logical sequence being associated to a predefined layout. The ordering of the pages includes ordering the plurality of graphic pages into a booklet logical sequence, where the booklet logical sequence is associated with a booklet layout. The pages are ordered according to the value of a remainder 'R' according to 'R=N_modulo()', wherein &#x2018;N&#x2019; is the number of graphic pages to be ordered.

Printing pages in accordance with a remainder computation formula

The present invention relates to cable-to-card connectors and more particularly to a system for simplifying plugging and unplugging operations and for preventing any risk of bending pins and damaging contacts first, by guiding the cable and receiving connectors and second by multiplying the operator's insertion/extraction force. The system comprises a pair of guiding posts one on each side of the cable connector and a push-pull unique central screw making the link between guiding posts and the cable connector.

System for smoothly plugging and unplugging large input/output connectors

The connecting device includes a securing plate and locking spring attached to the cable connector of the cable-to-card connectors. The connecting device is pressed, when the connectors are mated, by the front portion of the cable connector against the host machine chassis which in turn is pressed flat against the adapter card brackets. In a preferred embodiment the connecting device is attached on the front portion of a standard cable connector with removable fastener, in particular with a locking spring. In another embodiment, the connecting device is an integral part of the cable connector.
