Abstract
A system for printing a book through use of booklet ganging is disclosed. The system includes a computer connected to a printer. A document is accessible on the computer and is compatible with an application running on the computer. The system includes a software component that is configured to obtain a style configuration after a print command has been executed by the application. The style configuration includes an indication of whether the document is to be ganged. The style configuration is not obtained by the application. The software component gangs booklets based on the style configuration if the indication indicates that the document is to be ganged. The book is then printed through use of the booklet ganging.
