Example1: If 3-direction cutting is done, and each size is defined as shown below.
The following explains how to check top/bottom and foredge cutting
range, and confirm each available size.
Size of finished booklet
Width: W = 11.58" [294.0 mm] /
Length: L = 8.19" [208.0 mm]
Size of body pages/slip sheets
Width: W1 = 12.21" [310.0 mm] /
Length: L1 = 8.55" [217.0 mm]
Size of cover
Width: W2 = 12.45" [316.0 mm] /
Length: L2 = 18.27" [464.0 mm]
Booklet thickness: D
0.79" [20.0 mm]
Top/bottom cutting range: C1 = W2 - W
= 12.45" - 11.58" [316.0 - 294.0]
= 0.87" [22.0 mm]
Foredge cutting range: C2 = (L2 - D) / 2 - L
= (18.27" - 0.79") / 2 - 8.19" [(464.0 - 20.0) / 2 - 208.0]
= 8.75" - 8.19" [222.0 - 208.0]
= 0.56" [14.0 mm]
The values above (0.87" and 0.56" [22.0 mm and 14.0 mm]) are within the available
cutting range (top/bottom cutting range: 0.52" to 3.11" [13 to 79 mm], foredge cutting
range: 0.26" to 1.94" [6.5 to 49.5 mm]). Therefore, the defined sizes are available.
