Seshat 1.7.2 keeps the layers of a print file through every fix
Seshat 1.7.2 keeps a PDF's layers (optional content) when it adds bleed, scales, adds crop marks, imposes, reorders, merges or splits, so a fixed file stays print-ready.

Many print files carry more than the artwork. A spot varnish, a die line or white ink often sits on a layer of its own, so the press and the finishing know what is what. Losing those layers makes a file unusable.
What changed
- Layers kept. Adding bleed, scaling to size, adding crop marks, imposing, reordering pages, merging and splitting now keep the file's layers, with their names and whether they are switched on or off. Converting to CMYK and embedding fonts already did.
- Merged files keep all their layers. When files are merged, the result lists the layers of every file.
Nothing changes in your code: send the same fixes, and the layers come back with the file.
