Two possibilities come to mind. The easiest would be to break the list before Fusion Pro into multiple lists in Excel or another app. This would be the most efficient on the composing end. There is another option we have used when a monthly mailing uses one list to serve multiple, simultaneous purposes, such as sending both a reminder card and a birthday card, potentially to the same address. You can set a "Do not compose rule" that looks at a certain field (such as tray#) and skips a record unless it meets a certain criteria, such as "T5". This works, but can be very slow in Fusion Pro because the data must be re-composed in Fusion Pro for every possibility. In your case this would mean composing 36 times, and skipping records isn't much faster than composing them.

When I compose, I want to break each tray into a separate file to make the job manageable. Our shop uses Digimaster or NexPress to print the card. Our press operators like to impose the jobs themselves. Any information would be appreciated.
