All indicated register marks (center & side) must be a total of ¼” length with ⅛” of each mark extending into final trim (within the 11/16” turn-in). Failure to comply with this specification could result in rejection of casesides.
At least 1/2” of turn-ins must be printed. Dotted lines indicate the area to be printed.
Any design element which is not intended to wrap around the edge of the backbone must be a minimum of 3/32” from the backbone edges.
Printed tint panels designed to cover the full width of the backbone should print to the full backbone width. WARNING: Any backbone design intended to cover the full width of the backbone is subject to the inherent variation in paper thickness. This variation, along with normal variation in book manufacturing (see Note below) can lead to instances where the design does not necessarily stop at the backbone edge. Please call your CSR for more information.
Any design element not intended to bleed must be a minimum of 1/4” from final trim.
Note: Normal variation in manufacturing is +/- 1/16” side to side and +/- 1/8” up and down.
This variation should be considered if design position is critical.
Any design element which is not in-tended to wrap around the edge of the backbone must be a minimum of 3/32” from the backbone edge on each side.
