Click [Document] - [Bleed tabs].
You can create [Bleed tabs] in the following ways:
Select option [Use section level].
When the document contains sections, the 'Use section level' option is automatically selected.
Select a [Section] level from the drop-down list. The page ranges of the selected [Section] level are used to create the [Bleed tabs].
Define the page ranges manually.
Enter each page range separated by a '-'. For example: 5-10. Each page range becomes a bleed tab. Page ranges are not allowed to overlap. Gaps are allowed between the page ranges.
Define option [Cycle length]. Option [Cycle length] is available in the [Preview] view.
For example, you have defined a [Cycle length] of 5. This means that the [Bleed tabs] of five page ranges run from top to bottom. The bleed tab of the sixth page range starts at the top of the page again.
[Start set] or [Continue set]
Use the button [Start set] to start the [Bleed tabs] at the top of the page.
For example, you have defined a [Cycle length] of 5. This means that the [Bleed tabs] of five page ranges run from top to bottom. The bleed tab of the sixth page range starts at the top of the page again.
Select the fourth page range. Click the button [Start set]. The bleed tab of the fourth page range starts at the top of the page. The button [Start set] changes into [Continue set] for the fourth page range. Click button [Continue set] to undo this action.
Enable option [Caption] and type tab captions for each page range. A tab caption can contain up to three lines of text.
If option [Caption] is not selected, the tab captions are not printed in the document.
Click the icon in front of the page range to select the colour that must be used for the bleed tab. The default colour for the [Bleed tabs] captions is black.
Define the [Top / bottom indent].
The [Top / bottom indent] is the distance between the top and bottom of the page and the top and bottom of the [Bleed tabs].
Use the [Horizontal] and [Vertical] options to align the tab captions.
Use the associated [Margin] option to set the top distance and side distance of the caption on the tab. The [Margins] are used for the front side and the back side of the page.
Select option [Print bleed tabs on both sides] to print the [Bleed tabs] on the front side and the back side of the page.
Use the option [Rotate 180 degrees on reverse side] to define the orientation of the caption on the back side of the page.
Not all supported printer models can print on the back side of the tab. You will be notified about this in the notification area when you select that printer.
Click [Advanced...] to configure the text and/or add an image to the selected tab caption.
Images of type BMP, GIF, TIFF, TIF, JPEG, JPG, PNG and EPS are supported.
Click [OK].
