6-135 Imposition settings

ES3640e MFP EFI Job Management Guide - 135

DocBuilder Pro allows you to define the set of printer’s marks 
displayed. For example, ganged-up business cards do not require 
fold marks, while a 4 x 4 book layout does. To specify which marks 
are shown, click Define and choose options in the Define Marks 
dialog box.

The Define Marks dialog box allows you to enable or disable trim 
marks, fold marks, and the individual elements of the job label. 
The job label stores descriptive text used for the job name, sheet 
information, and date and time. You can also enter values (from –
72 to +72 points, –1.0 to 1.0 inch, or –25.4 to 25.4 mm) in the 
Horizontal Offset and Vertical Offset fields, to fine-tune the 
placement of trim marks and fold marks. In Mixed Page mode, 
you can select Pull in to Page Edge to align trim marks and fold 
marks with page boundaries.

Offset

—The Horizontal Offset 

and Vertical Offset fields 
determine the gap between 
the printer’s marks and the 
trim lines on the page. This 
allows you to move the 
printer’s marks away from the final trimmed area of the page. A 

10 point horizontal offset

10 point vertical offset
