Printing printers’ marks

Printing printers’ marks lets you display information on a page about how a document should be printed. You can specify the position of the printers’ marks on the page.

The available printers’ marks are as follows:

To print crop and fold marks Back to Top

*

To print crop and fold marks, ensure that the paper on which you print is 0.5 inches larger on all sides than the page size of the image that you are printing.

*

To set crop and fold marks, see To edit gutters.

To print composite crop and fold marks Back to Top
To set a bleed limit Back to Top

*

Usually, a bleed limit of 0.125 to 0.25 inches is sufficient. Any object extending beyond that uses memory needlessly and may cause problems when you print multiple pages with bleeds on a single sheet of paper.

To print registration marks Back to Top

*

To print registration marks, ensure that the paper on which you print is 0.5 inches larger on all sides than the page size of the image that you are printing.

To print color calibration bars and densitometer scales Back to Top
To print page numbers Back to Top
To print file information Back to Top
To position printers’ marks Back to Top

*

You can also change the position of printers’ marks by clicking a printers’ mark icon in the print preview window and dragging the bounding box.

If you want to affix printers’ marks to the object’s bounding box instead of to the page bounding box, click File Print, click the Prepress tab, and enable the Marks to objects check box.
