    Need a database of people/companies that don't pay

    It's pretty cool you should bring this up. Several years ago I had the same thought.

    Digital Printing Proof

    stacked imposition

    Larry, we do many variable data jobs here that require interleafed stacks. The program we use is FusionPro Desktop 5.8 and FusionPro Imposer. They should be able to accomplish what your asking for.
