Creating Custom Themes for Bleed Edge Tabs

You can create and save custom themes. Themes do not save bleed edge tab preset information, text, or images.
To create a custom theme:
  1. On the Bleed Edge Tabs screen, customize settings for text and images.
    Themes save the following settings:
    • Text orientation, position, alignment, and formatting
    • Image rotation, position, and scale
    • Font color, shape fill color, shape border color, or color patterns. Color patterns include font color, shape fill color, and shape border color.
  2. Click Themes button, the Themes button, on the toolbar.
  3. Click Save theme....
  4. Enter a name for the theme in the Save Theme dialog box.
  5. Click OK.
    The themes are arranged alphabetically.
    Note:
  • A color pattern can save different color settings for each bleed edge tab.
  • A pattern is based on the number of bleed edge tabs in a job. You can create a specific color pattern, save it as a custom theme, and apply it to other jobs.

    For example, if you want to create a custom theme with an alternating color pattern of black and white bleed edge tabs:

    1. Create a job with two bleed edge tabs.
    2. Define different color settings for each bleed edge tab.
    3. Save the custom theme.
    4. Close the job.
    5. Open another job with multiple bleed edge tabs.
    6. Apply the new custom theme. The color pattern is automatically repeated across all the bleed edge tabs in the job. If the job has 20 bleed edge tabs, the alternating pattern is repeated 10 times.
