4. From the 

Binding method list, select an option.

5.

Select the 

North South check box to place pages 180 degrees from each other, 

on the same side of the imposed sheet.

6.

Select the 

Rotate 90 deg. check box to rotate all pages 90 degrees to the right. 

This rotation can help correct imposition conflicts.

¾ Enter the desired margins sizes to adjust the spaces between the outside edges 

of pages and the edges of the sheet on which they are printed. 

Margin settings need to suit finishing equipment and requirements. Confirm binding 
parameters with your binder when planning your sheet.

The 

Marks & bleed parameter enables you to mark where trimming and folding 

should occur. 

When you set bleed options, you extend part or all of the printed image beyond the 
trimming boundary. The bleed options ensure that an inaccurate trim setting will not 
leave an undesired white 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.

1.

In the 

Marks area, select one of the following options:

a.

To print the lines that indicate where the sheet should be cropped, select 
the 

Crop Marks check box.

•

To print the crop marks on both sides of the page, select the 

of sheet check box.

b.

To print the lines that indicate where the sheet should be folded, select the 
Fold Marks check box.

Note:  The

 Binding option is available only when Saddle Stitch or Perfect 

Bound is selected as the Imposition method.

This option is available only when the 

 method is 

selected and the number of columns and rows is 2×1 or 1×2.

•

Crop marks are placed according to the 

 option. A minimum 

of 6 mm is required for crop marks and 10 mm for fold marks.

•

If your job already includes crop marks incorporated by the DTP 
application, you do not need to add crop marks here. If you do add crop 
marks, both sets of crop marks can be printed.

•

If you want to use crop marks incorporated by the DTP application, 
make sure that enough space is left around your page in the PostScript 
file so that the page prints with crop marks.
