design looks at different thicknesses, you can modify your design,
using these great Design Window tools:
a. Sheets
This box displays how many sheets of paper the book you're
designing for contains. You can enter the number of sheets
directly in this box, or use the up and down arrows to change
the value. For example, if your book has 50 pages, enter 50 in
the Sheets box. As you alter the number of Sheets, the Book
Thickness box also changes. The Strip Width Indicator Box
displays the correct width strip.
b. Book Thickness
This box displays the book thickness in inches or millimeters.
You can enter a new number directly in this box, or use the
up and down arrows to change the value. For instance, if your
book measures 1.5”, enter 1.5” in the Book Thickness box.
Note that as you alter the Book Thickness, the Sheets box
also changes. The Strip Width Indicator Box displays the
correct width strip.
c. Ask Button
Pressing the Ask button in the Design Window automatically
updates your title design to the thickness of the book in the
binder. When your PowisPrinter™ is properly docked to a
Fastback®, insert the book you want to bind and press the
green Bind button. Then, in the Design Window, press the
Ask button. The software communicates with the Fastback®,
then matches the title’s thickness to the book in the binder.
Handy, huh?
NOTE:
You cannot change the Strip Width Indicator Box directly.
2. If You Don’t Know Your Book’s Thickness
If you don't know your book thickness, you can either take a guess
at how thick it is (and hope for the best), or dock your printer to a
Fastback®, and use the Ask buttons. If you want, you can even
wait until you're ready to print to enter this information. Here's
how:
a. Design your title at any thickness.
b. When you’re ready to bind, insert your book in the binder
(your binder must be docked to a PowisPrinter™). Press the
green Bind button.
c. Open the Print Window. If your title design’s thickness
does not match the book in the binder, the Status Boxes
reflect the conflict. A “Book thickness mismatch” message
appears in the “Other” window of the Fastback® Status Box,
prompting you to correct the mismatch by pressing the Ask &
Update button. You can either:
• Press the Ask & Update button, which updates your design
according to the thickness of the book in the binder; then
returns to the Design Window so you can preview your
