Bleeds and Cut Marks

Bleeds control sets additional area outside the defined page size. It is trimmed after printing. Part of graphics or text that get into the bleed area will be printed. Bleeds are commonly required by commercial printers but are not necessary for office and home printing.

Cut marks are printed in the bleed area.

Text Conversion

Convert Text to Curves: turnes text to vector image before sending the document to the printer.

Booklet Printing Options

Imposition

The Imposition option is used to print booklets. Setting the option enables printing the document as a booklet: your pages are automatically rearranged and laid on the twice bigger paper.

When printing the booklet, the program automatically calculates the number of paper sheets.
The Summary bar displays this information.

Paper

The program sets paper format twice as big as for printing your booklet. For example, if your document is on A5 paper format, A4 will be set for the booklet. When the corresponding standard format cannot be found, a non-standard paper size is used ("Automatic Size" is selected).
The actual paper size is displayed below the drop-down list.

You can select another paper format in the drop-down list but the program will not update the size of pages.

Printing Side

Front and Back options are used if you turn the paper to the other side manually.
Duplex is used for duplex printers.

Reverse Order

The Reverse Order option is used to keep the correct page order when printing on another paper side.
