234 Chapter 6 - Production Printing The Margins parameter uses the following terminology: • The Margins size is the distance between the outside edges of the sheet and the edges of the pages printed on the sheet. The value that you set is not the exact distance. The Spire CXP8000 color server calculates the exact distance in accordance with other imposition parameters. • The Gutter size is the inside space between pairs of pages on a sheet. When folded into a signature / booklet, the gutter allows space for trimming. Note: For specific sheet templates, there may be no gutter at all or only one gutter-for example, in two up, there is no gutter. In these cases, the gutter size setting is ignored. • The Spine trim size is the space between adjacent pages on a printed sheet. When the sheet is folded into a signature / booklet, this space allows you to roughen the edges for perfect binding. Note: You use spine trim size with the perfect bound method only. If the saddle stitch method is used, this value is set to zero and the pages are printed side by side without any space between them. To set the margins: ¾ In the Margins options area, type the desired margin sizes. Note: Units of measurement (mm or inches) reflect system configuration and are selected in the Settings window, see Localization on page 409.
