I am printer. My client always send me non marginable designs which i need to print. But designs dont have margin for cutting therefore i have to create margin by first creating guidlelines for example 5mm inside on all side of page then i have to strech the design inside the guideline so that printing wont cut when i was using cutting machine.
Thats why I want a macro to create a specific MM guideline inside the page on all 4 corner and on the same time to shift all my selected design to strech inside till my guideline.
"stretching/squishing" would distort the print. If only a little no harm but otherwise would look bad.
A macro wouldn't necessarily need to use guidelines. Why wouldn't you just type in the width and height required? Or run a macro to size the print accordingly?
see the attached JPG. this is what i am looking for. i want to shrink my selection to the guidelines from outside toinside side. please help.
Yes, that's what I am suggesting. Guidelines have nothing to do with it, they're just a visual. What are the physical dimensions h & w that would get you inside that area. Once you know that you can set up a macro to size it accordingly. But like I said could get complicated if paragraph text is used instead of artistic text. If it's all converted text you should be golden.
i have multiple size of injection labels always came for printing. we need to create cutting margins because the size of labels are like 20x30mm, 16x65mm,25x34mm etc. i make around 2mm margin on all 4 sides for cuttings thats why i asked to shrink my selection to the ruller lines.
