Xara P&DG 17 Page Size Units Accuracy

Donnelly-Bledsoe wrote on 4/25/2020, 11:58 AM

When set to "Inches" ... the level of accuracy is limited to 2 decimal places. For example, I prep a lot of business cards for printing at 300dpi on Heildelberg presses. With bleed, the page size MUST be fixed at 3.625" x 2.125" which Xara rounds up to 3.63" x 2.13". Is there any way to increase the size to 3 decimal places?

I have tried to convert the "Inches" to "Pixels" at 300dpi, which equals 1087.5px x 737.5px but in so doing, the resolution seems to create other problems.

Is there a solution to this problem that will make the press operators happier? They prefer "Inches" to other measures.

As you have received no reply it would be safe to assume that no one has an answer for your question.

Have you taken this up with the printers?
