Abstract: Methods, systems and processor-readbale media for preventing a job/set splitting across a stacker. A splitting prevention module can be configured to include a prevent job splitting feature or a prevent set splitting feature. The prevent job splitting feature and the prevent set splitting feature can be selected by a user so that the stacker will not begin stacking the job/set unless the stacker possesses a capacity for stacking the complete job/set. The stacker automatically unloads the job/set with respect to a job/set boundary provided by the user. Such an approach prevents the jobs/sets from being split when the stacker goes full.

Abstract: The present disclosure shows an easy to learn and easy to use drag and drop method in a highly visual user interface to simplify the process of programming special pages and to quickly add page objects to a document's pages. The results of these drag and drop operations are displayed for the user prior to printing. More specifically, a limited number of icons are preprogrammed but can be pre-programmed when applied to a document. The modifications apply to subsequent applications of the icon to provide a simple but flexible technique to accommodate numerous types of special page programming. It also provides the ability to save modifications relative to the page reference, thus making the special pages programmed reusable and useful even if the original document has been somewhat modified.
