Marks pane

Use the Marks pane to include crop marks, registration marks, and bleed marks in the output. Crop marks are short vertical and horizontal lines printed outside the page’s final trim size, indicating where to cut the page. Registration marks are symbols that are used to align overlaying plates. Bleed marks indicate where page bleeds end.

  • To include crop marks and registration marks on every page, choose Centered or Off Center from the Marks drop-down menu.
  • When you choose Centered or Off Center, the Width, Length, and Offset fields are available. Values in the Width and Length fields specify the width and length of the crop marks. Values in the Offset field specify the distance of the crop marks from the page edge.
  • To include marks indicating bleed location, select the Include Bleed Marks option.
