Setting Margins And Binding Space

Margins

Paper margins allow you to change the margins for a sheet of paper, and Mini-Page margins allow you to change the mini-page margins for the current Layout.

 

Important:

ClickBook's margins are in addition to the margins set in your application program.
Unlike the application program's margins, which gets scaled down along with the contents of your document, ClickBook's margins print at the exact size specified.

 

To change either margins follow these steps:

 

1.From the Menu bar select Layouts and click on Modify layouts.
2.Under the Margin section alter the settings to your liking by using up and down arrows on the number boxes.  To make a big increase or decrease, hold the mouse button down  until the desired value is reached.
3.View the results by watching the Layout picture, which redraws automatically to show the margin changes.  The margins, including the Binding margin are shown in blue.
4.When you are finished, press Done.

 

Note: Usually you should set your application program's page margins or ClickBook's Top/Bottom and Left/Right Mini-page Margins.  If you choose to set ClickBook's we recommend that you first print a part of your booklet and measure the exact of margin you want to add.  Then print the entire document with the Mini-page margins set correctly.

 

Note: Set the Paper Margins to match the cut-away or pre-perforated tear-off areas around the edges of some custom papers.
