Arrange your chart pages so they fit together exactly like the printed pattern. Use the live chart page configuration preview to review the layout is correct before continuing.

This step only appears on multi-page charts. The layout chipset sits on the left edge in landscape and along the bottom in portrait.

Controls at a Glance

The Layout Chipset

Shows the currently selected layout configuration (Row-x-Col), set page direction, and 'location of first page' options

Layout Configuration: Pick the page grid, for example "3 Across x 2 Down". Only layouts that exactly fit your chart page count are offered, and the best guess is pre-applied. A small label confirms the active size, e.g. "3x2".
Set Page Direction: Page numbering left-to-right or top-to-bottom. A popup message confirms direction, and the pages (including the page-number) are rearranged in realtime to view the result.
First-Page Location: changes the location of the first page (i.e. choose either the top or bottom of the chart) and all other pages follow suit with a popup message confirmation. This is for PDF charts that reverse the order of their pages with the last page displayed first. 
Back: returns to the Select Picture Pages step.
Next: goes to the Review Grids step. The configuration chosen in this step will be used for all subsequent steps in the setup of your project.

Layout Preview

Pan and Zoom: Drag a single finger to move around the layout and pinch to zoom in for futher details. There is no dedicated zoomed inper-page-preview on this step. Only page thumbnails are used, so detail may suffer when zoomed in close. 
Page Numbers: Every page shows its assocoated PDF page number in the configuration. This allows you to view the stitching order at a glance and watch the pages change location as you flip the options. Note: After this step these chart pages numbers change to begin from 1, irrespective of their original PDF page number.

Did you know?

  • Initial best guess: Markup computes the grid rows and columns on each page to determine every geometrically valid arrangement for your layout and offers the best layout option as the default.
  • Selected Configuration: returning to this step will keep the currently selected layout configuration and not silently re-pick the default option.
  • Missing/Invalid Pages: if you have missed any pages during the initial chart page selection (or instead included any invalid pages) the setup wizard now lets you go back through previous steps to the Select Chart Pages step to change the selection without having to restart the project.
  • Manual Page Re-ordering is not possible on this step. The Layout Chipset contains all possible layout options. If a valid layout cannot be achieved due to the current PDF page order, you may need to delete and re-start the project from the very beginning, and re-order the pages correctly in the Configure PDF step.
