8. Choose View>New Guide Layout.
This dialog box makes it very easy to define a page grid using non-printing guides. The
dialog box defaults to add 8 columns with a 20-pixel (0.067 in) gutter. In the document
window, you can see the guides (blue lines) that will be created based on the active
settings in the New Guide Layout dialog box.
9. Uncheck the Columns option and check the Margin option. Type 0.125 in
each of the available margin fields.
You can use the Margin fields to place guides at specific distances from each edge of the
canvas. You don’t need to type the unit of measurement because the default unit for
this file is already inches. Photoshop automatically assumes the value you type is in the
default unit of measurement.
10. Click OK to return to the document and add the required margin guides.
At this point you should have four guides – two vertical and two horizontal, each 1/83
from the file edges. These mark the trim size of your final 8.53 1 113 file.
11. Choose View>100%.
It helps to zoom in to a higher view percentage if you want to precisely place guides. To
complete the following steps accurately, we found it necessary to use at least 100% view.
