Pagination
When
doing a design/layout for a newsletter or book, it will help us
if you provide your files already paginated. In fact, if you have
any copy, photos or background screens that run between two pages,
it is required.
See
below for an example of a paginated 12 page book.
11 x 17”, folded, collated and stapled to make an 8 1/2 x 11”
book:
Page 1, or the “cover”, is always on the right side, with
the last page, or “back cover”, on the left. It is helpful
to make a paper “dummy”, folding and numbering the sheets
of your book. Then you can open the pages up flat, and easily see
how the pages should paginate. Remember: each “sheet”
of paper, when paginatated equals four complete pages.

Registrations
Marks & Color Separations
If
your finished piece will be 2 or more colors, overprinting or
close registration, save your files to include:
• Page information
• Crop marks/registration marks
• Color separations
• If you have bleeds: extend your bleed area outside of
the cropmarks.
This will ensure a true “bleed” when we cut your finished
piece
