Print crop marks

To print crop marks, you must print on a paper size that is larger than the page size you have set for your publication. Commonly, this requires that you print to an imagesetter, which can define a variety of paper sizes.

1. Check the paper size.

   How?

   1. On the File menu, click Page Setup, and then click the Printer and Paper tab.
   2. Check the paper size you have selected.

      Which paper sizes are available depends on the printer driver you have selected. Most imagesetter printer drivers have paper sizes, such as Letter.Extra, A4.Extra, and Legal.Extra, which provide extra space on every edge to accommodate crops marks and other printer’s marks.

2. On the File menu, click Print.
3. Click Advanced Print Settings, and then click the Page Settings tab.
4. Under Printer's marks, select Crop marks.
5. Select any other options you want, and then click OK twice.

Note  To turn off crop marks, clear the Crop marks check box.
