@github-actions github-actions released this 18 Jul 11:52

PDF imposition for print — lay your pages out on the press sheet.

Windows, no setup — the -portable.zip: unzip, run Laydown.exe
(SmartScreen will warn once: More info → Run anyway). 64-bit only
(PyQt6 ships no 32-bit Windows packages).

Windows, installed (MSIX) — the package is signed with the project's
own certificate, and Windows only installs what it trusts, so the first
time you need one elevated-PowerShell moment in your download folder:

Import-Certificate -FilePath .\Laydown-msix-signing.cer -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\TrustedPeople
Add-AppxPackage (Get-Item .\Laydown-*-windows-x64.msix)

That trust is one-time — future releases are signed with the same
certificate. (Skipping the first line gets you error 0x800B010A.)

macOS.dmg, drag to Applications. First launch: right-click → Open.
Linux — extract the .tar.gz and run ./Laydown. No Python needed.

What changed is in CHANGELOG.md.

Upgrading from PressReady? This app was called PressReady up to 0.3.0
(renamed to avoid clashing with Fujifilm's product of the same name). To
Windows the old install is a different app, so remove it once:
Get-AppxPackage PressReadyTeam.PressReady | Remove-AppxPackage — and the
certificate trust starts fresh too, hence the Import-Certificate step above.
