Quite Software were founded in London, England in
1995, and relocated to the beautiful Highlands of Scotland in 2000.
Our first product, PSAlter remains the tool of choice
for PostScript programmers and problem solving.
In 1997, we saw that PDF was likely to be the
wave of the future, and began to create plug-ins for Adobe Acrobat. Drawing on
our experience of the printing and publishing trades, we decided to focus on the
area of pre-press production.
Our first plug-in was Quite Imposing. This remains the
tool of choice for doing imposing - booklet making and sheet layouts - in Adobe
Acrobat.
This was followed by Quite A Box Of Tricks and, in 2002,
Quite Revealing, both acclaimed as
powerful but easy to use and learn.

Automate your Workflow
XML is rapidly gaining acceptance as a way of transferring information between programs, so it was a natural choice for us in describing imposition tasks. So we will encourage OEMs, integrators and workflow vendors to create customized workflows using its Hot folder or Command-Line (XML) tools.
If you are using Quite Imposing Plus, it makes an XML for every imposition you create, so you already have XML available for Quite Hot Imposing.
Our customers have used the Quite Hot Imposing command line to integrate with industry standard workflow products including
Enfocus Switch
Solimar
Xerox FreeFlow
There is direct support for integrating Quite Hot Imposing with the Switch range of workflow automation products from Enfocus as per the example below.
The XML metadata is used to determine how a file should be imposed. You create the imposition layout, then export the settings for use with the Quite Hot Imposing configurator in Switch.
