    Divide A3 document

    annabel112

      Hi,

       

      I am printing some a5 fold to a6 greetings cards. However the printer i am using has to have them on an a3 sheet (so 4 cards in one dicument)- how do i divide or add crease lines onto my a3 board in illustrator? So i can check i have spaced all the artwork correctly

       

      Thanks!

          Annabel,

           

          If you have (empty) margins on your A5s, you may just centre the first one at X = 105 mm and Y = 74.25 mm, then Effect>Distort & Transform>Transform, then first move 1 copy horizontally by 210 mm and then move 1 copy by 148.5 mm.

           

          It is more complicated if you have the cards printed to the edge, and you will need bleed and something larger than A3.
