We've had some reports of stapling issues using the custom PPD option in the PDF to PS processing conversion, to correct this a collation postscript command is also required in the custom ppd code. e.g.
<</BindingLocation (LongEdge) >> setpagedevice
<</Collate true /Rotate false /Jog 0>> setpagedevice
<</Staple 2 /StapleDetails <</Type 5 /Position (1PLU)>> >> setpagedevice
To apply the custom PPD like in the example above follow these steps:-
1. download example staple.ppd from here
2. edit it in notepad for your printer, lines 1 and 3 might be different, even line 2 might be slightly different. i.e. download the PPD file from the printer manufacturer website to find out what commands are supported/required for your printer.
3. setup like below in processing setup (right mouse on a pdf file in the list to find that option 'processing setup')

4. print
