drill hole dieline safety margin

Post by hankwheat »

We have actions to put perf lines and drill holes on our proofs. We then visually check pages to confirm text isn't going to get chopped by the drill but can be time consuming on jobs with high page counts. Is there a check that can be setup to warn if text is inside the drill holes?

I can't seem to find an action that will do that.

If the drill holes are objects on the PDF page you can select them and then select overlapping objects, perhaps combined with a select text. If anything is selected you know there's an issue.

Or you could do the same with select in region if you know where the holes are going to be.
