    摘要: Systems and methods for preserving logical page order in a print job. One embodiment is a system that includes an interface that receives a print job having documents, and a controller that identifies different groups of logical pages belonging to different documents. The controller inserts an identifier into each logical page of the different groups that distinguishes logical pages of different documents, and directs the print job into a print workflow that comprises an ordered set of activities to perform upon the documents. The controller also obtains layout information that indicates a placement of one or more logical pages on a sheet, retrieves identifiers from each of the one or more logical pages of the sheet, and detects a print error based on a difference in the identifiers retrieved for the sheet.
