Print mark templates

About print mark templates

A print mark template is a ready to use .evd drawing with print marks attached in a particular pattern. Using print mark templates saves time in the application of print marks. When applied, the template instantly places in the drawing the print marks set from the template. Depending on the template instruction, print marks are aligned along the cutting box (A), the sheet (B) or the dieboard (C). Templates automate the placement into a drawing of pre-positioned sets of print mark standards.

EngView-installed templates

Your installation comes with five default print mark templates:

• Center Marks, which places four print marks, in the midpoints on the four sides of the cutting box.
• Crop Marks, which places four print marks, at the corners of the cutting box.
• Japanese Marks, which places nine print marks along the cutting box: four at the corners; four at the midpoints; and at the point of intersections of the cutting box's diagonals.
• Registration Marks, which places four 6-mm-wide circles, whose centers are offset at 8 mm from the cutting box.
• Sheet Gripper Marks, consisting of two print marks for the gripper in the lower part of the placed sheet.
