the page size specified in Illustrator,
enabling you to print bleeds, for
example, that run past the edge of
the page.
As you work with tiled artwork, be sure
to consider how the artwork relates to
the boundaries of the page grid and to
the total dimensions of the artboard. For
example, if the artwork is tiled onto six
pages, part of the artwork will print on
a separate sheet of paper that corre-
sponds to page 6. If you specify printing
only from pages 1 to 5, the part of the
artwork that is on page 6 won’t print.
The program may print blank pages if
the document is tiled so that the bound-
ing box of the artwork intersects pages
that do not contain any artwork. The
bounding box is a transparent border
that defines the boundaries of your art-
work. In the following illustration, the
bounding box surrounds the artwork,
not its direction lines.
