The Margins area in the Layout pane.
STEP 9: SPECIFYING GAPS
Values in the Gaps area (select Gaps in the Layout pane) specify the amount
of space to place between imposed pages and spreads. Enter values between 0
and 288 pts in the
Vertical, Horizontal, and Spread fields.
The Gaps area in the Layout pane.
• The Vertical field represents the distance between the right side of the left
page and the left side of the right page.
A vertical gap value is required if the flat has a crossover. For
Perfect Bound
publications, if you are creeping in (with a negative value), the minimum
vertical gap value is the width of the
Creep value. If you’re manually creating
signatures (for example, if there are different stocks in the same publication),
you can enter a value in the
Vertical field to specify a starting creep for flats
that belong to different signatures.
• The Horizontal field represents the distance between the bottom of the
upper printer spread and the top of the lower printer spread.
• A horizontal gap value is not available for 2-Up flats but is required for 4-Up
flats that bleed.
• The
Spread field, available for 8-Up flats only, represents the vertical space
between the two sets of printer spreads.
In the Layout pane, arrows show the location affected by the active field
(the
Spread field).
