About this tool
Use tool ↑Compare print layouts with bleed, margins and grain-direction rotation limits.
For print estimators: compare two uniform rectangular grids, with bleed on every edge and gaps between bleeds. Lock rotation when needed. Not mixed nesting, duplex imposition or cutting optimization. All dimensions are millimetres.
