6 Using Guides
Note:
Guides allow you to position elements accurately, to define margins or to
divide a layout into columns. When the cursor approaches a guide (e.g.
when you are creating a rectangle), it snaps to the guide as soon as it
reaches the snap area.
Guides can only be created on a layout and are automatically stored together
with it. They are usually non-printing elements, but ORIS PDF
Tuner also allows you to output guides when converting layouts to another
format using the FILE | EXPORT function (see page 3-46).
It is not possible to reverse the creation or deletion of guides using the
EDIT | UNDO function.
Defining Guide Color
There are three different colors available for guides in order to distinguish
them according to their usage. Before creating a guide, select the
color to be used for it. All guides will be created with this color until you
select another color or exit the program.
To select a color, click or select GUIDES | ACTIVATE. Then select one
of the following items on the MENU window:
• COLUMNS
For dividing a layout into columns (default color: blue)
• BASELINES
For horizontal guides defining text baselines (default: turquoise)
• GUIDES
For other guides, e.g. guides defining bleed margins (default: green).
Note:
All types of guides are identical except for their color. You can use a
COLUMN guide to define bleed margins or text baselines, for example.
