Subject: 6-sided letter fold (TRYPTICHON) with unequal page size
Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 22:15:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180619221531.4102b4a7@homerow> (raw)
Hi,
I try getting a 6-sided letterfold with unequal page size to work.
This is how it's supposed to look like:
https://www.saxoprint.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/roll-fold-leaflets-02-01.png
This is easy with the arranging option TRYPTICHON. *But* the page
sizes are not equal and manually adjusting them shifts them not the
way they're supposed to. Page 4 and 5 need to be a bit less wide to
be able to fold neatly.
Page width 1,2,3,6: 10cm
Page width 4,5: 9.7cm
How to adapt for the changed page size without an overlapping page 4
and a page with clearance to the adjacent 6th page? Suggestions
welcome!
Here the example you've all been waiting for:

%% shifts page to the left, why?
