Operation Manual

54 Working with Pages
• In the Margin Guides section, you can set the left, right,
top, and bottom page 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 Mirrored margins on facing pages
where the "left" margin setting becomes the "inside," and
the "right" margin becomes the "outside."
• Use the Row and Column Guides section to define guides
for rows and columns. If you want rows or columns of
uneven width, first place them at fixed intervals, then drag to
reposition them as required.
• Use Bleed area guides to specify the extra margin you want
to allow around the original Page Setup dimensions or "trim
area." Note that if the setting is zero or you have
View>Bleed Area Guides unchecked, you won't see the
bleed area displayed.
• For ruler guides, use the Guides tab to precisely create, edit
or delete ruler guides, or more commonly, just drag the
guides from the rulers.
To show or hide guides:
• On the View menu, check or uncheck a guide option.
Creating ruler guides
PagePlus lets you to set up horizontal and vertical ruler guides—non-printing
lines you can use to align headlines, pictures, and other layout elements.
