I have CorelDraw Graphics Suite X6. I have created what I want in the end to be a double sided business card. However, when printing I am unable to get what will be the back design to align with the front design. Does Coreldraw have a option of sort to make this happen automatically? Or is there a technique to make this happen? Thanks!
If the fronts and the backs of your cards are both positioned in the horizontal centre of the page, and your imposition page size matches that of the printer, then the cards should align -- at least, as close as the printer's alignment tolerance allows.There is nothing more that CorelDraw should need to do.
Often though, office printers don't have good sheet-to-sheet alignment accuracy, which means that even once you get the alignment right, the print will drift from copy to copy.
Have printed out single sided business cards in the past from a place similar to Office Depot. Their laser printing is great. Just thought I'd give the double sided ones a try. But during a test print, we encountered this tiny little detail which in truth has turned into somewhat of a headache. lol will give it a try once again and let you know how it all turns out. Thanks!
As far as having a printing place dedicated to doing this, thought about it as a very last option. Just thought that CorelDraw being the great programs that it is would have some sort of safety option or function which automatically aligned both sides, which would completely discard an aligning error on my part etc. Of course this taking into consideration any possible drift from the actual printer. Have actually made double sided business cards with Window's Publisher and got a perfect alignment, but thought I'd give CorelDraw a try. Guess I really expected a little bit more as to projects like this. Thanks guys, if I run across anything to help with the issue will let you know. Appreciate the input!
