What is it? Can you add a sentence or two of detail? I saw this on the site:
Bookletimposer is an utility to achieve some basic imposition on PDF documents, especially designed to work on booklets.
. But the phrase "basic imposition" is unknown to me.
Production: 5.10, MX-23 Xfce, AMD FX-4130 Quad-Core, GeForce GT 630/PCIe/SSE2, 16 GB, SSD 120 GB, Data 1TB

I hope it doesn't impose unwanted booklets upon people, like those people that would give kids religious tracts on Halloween instead of candy. :mad:

Anyway, I sent it up to the MX 17-19 test repos.

"Imposition", in book edition, means reordering page of a document : to make a booklet from a linear (page by page) document for example. Or, conversely, make a page by page document from a booklet.
Previous version is in the repo, but the new version is more intuitive, with more option.
Indeed, this program could be use to make religious booklets or tracts.. But also any other booklet.
Anyway, thanks.

It should be in our test repo by now--have you tried installing it?
