32 Working with Pages
4. Adjust the document Margins to your specifications. You can set the
left, right, top, and bottom margins individually, or click the From
Printer button to derive the page margin settings from the current
printer settings. The dialog also provides options for Balanced
margins (left matching right, top matching bottom) or for two
Mirrored margins on facing pages where the "left" margin setting
becomes the "inside," and the "right" margin becomes the "outside."
Using the page and pasteboard
Most of the DrawPlus display is taken up by a page or "artwork" area and a
surrounding pasteboard area. This arrangement is an electronic equivalent of
the system used by traditional graphic designers. They kept design tools and bits
of text and graphics on a large pasteboard, and then carefully pasted final
arrangements of text and graphics onto a page-sized "artwork" sheet pinned
down in the middle of the board.
The page area is where you put the text and graphic elements that you want to
be part of the final output. The pasteboard area is where you generally keep any
elements that are being prepared or waiting to be positioned on the page area.
