Specify crop marks for trimming or aligning
In addition to specifying different artboards to crop artwork for output, you can also create and use multiple sets of crop
marks within your artwork. Crop marks indicate where you want the printed paper to be cut. Crop marks are useful
when you want to create marks around several objects on a pagefor example, when printing a sheet of business cards.
They are also helpful for aligning Illustrator artwork that you’ve exported to another application.
Crop marks differ from the artboard in the following ways:
Artboards specify the printable boundaries of artwork, whereas crop marks don’t affect the printed area at all.
You can activate only one artboard at a time, whereas you can create and display multiple crop marks.
The artboard is indicated by visible but non-printing marks, whereas crop marks are printed with registration black
(so that they print to every separation plate, similar to printers marks).
Note: Crop marks do not replace trim marks created with the Marks & Bleed options in the Print dialog box.
Create crop marks around an object
In Illustrator CS5, you can create editable trim/crop marks or create crop marks as live effects.
To use crop marks, do the following:
1 Select the object.
2 To create editable trim marks or crop marks, select Object > Create Trim Marks.
3 To create crop marks as live effect, select Effect > Crop Marks.
Delete crop marks
To delete an editable crop or trim marks, select the trim marks and press the Delete key.
To delete a crop marks effect, select Crop Marks in the Appearance panel, and click the Delete Selected Item icon .
Use Japanese-style crop marks
Japanese-style crop marks have double lines, which visually define a default bleed value of 8.5 points (3 millimeters).
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > General (Windows) or Illustrator > Preferences > General (Mac OS).
2 Select Use Japanese Crop Marks, and then click OK.
White Overprint | Illustrator CC
Artwork created in Illustrator can have white objects applied with unintentional overprint. This becomes apparent only
when one turns on the overprint preview or printing separations. This causes delays in the production process and
reprinting may need to be performed. Though Illustrator warns users if a white object is applied with overprint, there
are scenarios when a white overprint may occur without it coming to the user’s notice. For example:
