Abstract

In a page arrangement order determination method, when a plurality of pages are to be arranged on a common surface for printing purposes, the order of arrangement of the plurality of pages on the common surface is determined based on only the order of folding of printed paper and a position of a front page. A cutting step required for a work-and-tumble operation and a repeat operation can be effected between a printing step and a bookbinding step, and when one of the work-and-tumble operation and the repeat operation is to be effected, the page arrangement order is determined only by additionally designating the one of the two operations.
