So I’m running Mac OS 10.6.8 and CS5, and I am trying to manually tile a page and have the page info show up, even when I crop very close up. Is there a way to do this? I tried the .mrk file and got it to show in my Marks and Bleed settings, but I can’t get it to do anything when I tile. Any suggestions?

@Christian: Unfortunately, I haven’t found anyone who has found this folder in Windows 7. It has either gone away or is very well hidden. Sorry!

We have successfully altered our .mrk file to what we want except for spot plates across multiple pages. If we have, for example, FOIL and GLITTER as spot colours on page 1, it does put those names onto the PDF. It also puts the two spot colour names on page 2 despite there only being 4 colour process on page 2. Is there a way to only have the plate names appearing that occur on a particular page in a multi-page pdf? We are using CS3.

Many thanks

Brenda, what OS are you using?

In my OS X Leopard (with CS4), the PrintSpt folder
is still at the same location as before (HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/PrintSpt).
