Abstract
An imposing apparatus searches for a layout of objects whose profile shapes (profile lines) do not overlap each other with respect to each of cells that make up an imposition area. The imposing apparatus then adjusts an interval between the objects that have been laid out according to the search result, by a unit smaller than the unit length of the cells, thereby bringing the profile lines of adjacent ones of the objects into partial agreement with each other.
