Examples of a printing system are described herein. In an example, the printing system that uses the original print job created for the PDF/VT file for building a modified print job that includes a set of instructions to render the PDF/VT file which is modified on the run, or on the fly. The original print job includes instructions for using a fixed metadata. In one example, the fixed metadata is a Document Part (DPart) Metadata (DPM), and can be expressed in a hierarchical structure expressed in a tree structure called Document Part (DPart). The metadata is extracted from the PDF/VT file, and then used to build the modified print job including alternate instructions based on print conditions corresponding to the metadata.

Methods and systems to customize printable information

The disclosure discloses methods and systems for selectively applying clear colorant on one or more pages of a print job. The method includes receiving a print job including a document having a plurality of pages. Then, clear colorant attributes are received from a user via a user interface, the clear colorant attributes include type of clear colorant and one or more pages where clear is to be applied. An imposition template is received from the user via the user interface. The print job is decomposed into image data. The plurality of pages is re-arranged, based on the imposition template. The re-arranged pages are stored. Thereafter, clear colorant on the one or more pages as specified by the user is applied. The pages as specified by the user with clear colorant feature are printed and the remaining pages are printed in a normal printing mode.

Methods and systems for applying spot color on one or more pages as specified by a user

Methods and systems for the imposition of a print job. A grid composed of a 2D matrix of a group of logical cells can be graphically displayed in a graphical user interface. Each logical cell can be defined by a contiguous rectangular region made up cells of equal sized cells and wherein the grid directs the imposition of a print job. Graphical elements are also displayed in the graphical user interface, which when selected by a user allows for the merging of the logical cells across rows and columns of the grid for the imposition of the print job.
