I think that the label "Adjust Slug" for this setting, if it is meant to be used for adjusting the offset of print marks, should be changed to e.g. The result, when using the default offset, would be this when having a bleed area the width of which is 17mm:ĭefining the offset at 17mm (the same as bleed area) would resolve the problem and would draw the print marks off the bleed area (a gap is not needed in this case as the edge of the bleed would be glued under end sheet so there is no danger that misaligned cover paper would show any print marks):ĬorelDRAW would handle the same situaion without user intervention (and would also add the standard gap between the bleed and the marks): in InDesign the default offset for print marks is 2,117mm.

The default should also be more than zero, I think, to avoid problems with small registration misalignments, e.g. in CorelDRAW).īut think about a scenario where you need e,g, a 17mm bleed (like with covers for a hard-bound book) - you need to have all print marks (including crop marks) drawn off the bleed area to avoid having any print marks showing in print area (like printed color on the inner side of the cover paper of a hard-bound book when it is folded over the edge of the cover). in InDesign, or it can be automatically adjusted by the app (as e.g. It can be user-defined (as most of the settings you have are), like it is e.g. There are so many things I don't understand, so I'll end said in Printer marks do not work correctly: Still, the Bleed, Slug settings don't seem to work properly to me. Why are the settings separated in different places? On the other hand, there is Margins in Document Setup> Artbord> Format. I don't understand why Bleed and Slug are elements of Margin. However, the content is Bleed and Slug settings. In VS there is a Margins setting in Document Setup. This is a reference diagram of how they are used in the Japanese printing industry. Other names and position settings are different here and there. The Bleed part of the photo is cut off, but it should be filled. Unfortunately, the illustrations here lack clarity. It seems that this is not necessary in Europe and the United States, but it is essential in Japan. The ID further defines the bleed cut-off marks as "Bleed marks". Of course, the names are different, but the program works fine.
I don't think so, but I'm worried that VS developers might have this confusion. It is common in industry that specifications differ depending on the country, organization, and manufacturer. In my opinion, the cause may be the crosstalk of the program due to confusion with the print term, typesetting term, and postscript definition.Įspecially, I have a problem in interpreting "crop" and "mrgin". What is the reason why the mark is not in the specified position? It becomes a Crop mark, but Bleed disappears. The difference between Bleed mark and Crop mark will be described later. Set the following document as an example.ĭocument Setup: Margins = 0mm, Slug = 15mm Here's an example of what hasn't been fixed. It is regrettable because it is an essential function as a product.
