Swedish term or phrase: utskjutning
A rather technical term (I suspect) in the field of graphics and printing. I am translating a text about a software package that deals with all issues in organising print jobs. The sentence is as follows:

"Webbfunktionen för en operatör hos skall kunna hantera allt från uppläggning av jobb via preflight, kundgodkännande till utskjutning samt utskrift av provtryck och plåt"

agree  Thomas Johansson: English printing dictionaries online appear to define "imposition" the same way Swedish ones define "utskjutning".
