Printing Plate Palette

This palette can only be used in Expert mode.

The imposition itself depends on the sheet size, this palette adapts PDF for CTP output – the TrimBox and BleedBox are not set according to the imposition settings. The PDF size same as sheet option has just this function. If it is not active, you can set the size of the printing plate and the position of the sheet on the plate – the distance from the bottom edge of the plate and the horizontal shift if the sheet should not be in the center of the plate. The Perfecting option is intended for printing both sides of a sheet in one pass, where the sheet flips around the horizontal axis for printing on the back. You can edit plates similarly to the Sheet Size Palette, the non-printable area is for visual information only.
