space at the edge of the page. The bleed options produce sharp
page boundaries with color that extends all the way to the edge of
the page.
Margins
¾
Enter a value to adjust the spaces between the outside edges
of pages and the edges of the sheet on which they are printed.
Gutter
¾
Enter a value. The value that you enter depends on the paper
size and imposition method you choose.
The gutter size is the space between pairs of pages (according to
the trim size) on a sheet. When the pages are folded into a booklet,
the gutter allows space for trimming.
Spine size
¾
Enter a value. The value that you enter depends on the paper
size and imposition method you choose.
Creep
Creep is a common problem in saddle-stitch jobs. When
signatures are inserted inside one another, the signatures inserted
last are the farthest from the center of the booklet. As a result, the
outer edges of the inner pages creep past the outer pages.
Notes:
•
You cannot extend the bleed size beyond the sheet fold lines. Bleed does
not affect the position of crop.
•
Bleeding must be defined in your DTP application in order for the IC-301
print controller to be able to apply the bleed options.
Notes:
•
Margin settings should suit finishing equipment and requirements.
•
Confirm binding parameters with your binder when planning your
sheet.
Note: It is recommended that you use a border around all documents when
you use creep.
