Use this page to build a valid
Job.xml for PrintFactory’s Cloud API, without manual math.
The tool lets you enter job metadata, define documents, and place imposition parts while a live preview
shows how everything fits on the media (with margins). You can work in mm or inches; the app converts
all values to the API’s required unit (1/18″) when generating the XML. When you’re done, copy the
Job.xml and submit it with the Add Job (POST) endpoint; GUIDs (device, printer profile,
variants, media/tray,etc) can be fetched from the API links provided at the end of this page. The tool is easier to use if opened in a new window, follow this link.1. DeviceGUID
