I tried the creep feature

Lumpy · February 12, 2009, 07:40:59 AM

Good morning everybody,I tried the creep feature to a job (see attachment).It doesn't look like it worked correctly. On the final piece, it looks like the inner sig pages moved just alittle too much?Any thoughts.Skryber, I know you can help me, please? huh

I forgot the attachment. I hate mornings.

Did you mic the stock? What was it? Why do you think it moved too much?

Skryber · February 12, 2009, 07:48:20 AM

Wait, are you looking at a proof or actual printed dummy? Your proof will surely be on different stock and it never comes out looking right when you mock it up.

We do not shingle 32 pagers. The creep is insignificant.

32 pages of 70# Offset Text = 0.0406 shingle.

I tend to agree with steve and there may be something I'm missing here, but why have you applied horz and vert offsets to each page individually instead of applying to all pages in layout details?

I'm also kind of at a loss as to why you would have to have creep on a 32 pager. I don't even think about creep until 72 minimum. Course, that does depend on stock.

Is your template set up correctly? saddle stitch?
mic the paper and post what you have :smiley:
Prolly dumb question but do you have 1-up pages?

Looks like that is just the automatic centering turned on.

I cut down the 2 sigs on my light table (I tried to cut as accurately as possible).I suppose I need to wait to see what the bindery department ends up with huh?

Yes. Mic thickness makes all the difference.

This site has a good basic shingling app.

The bodies are on 100#text(.005). The reason I want to add creep is due to the vertical bars on each page. see attached. Thanks everybody.

Set inner to .02.

Lumpy · February 12, 2009, 10:44:41 AM

Why .02?
