Hi

How can I view an object in the all pages of the 3 folded brochure
in the print preview of corel draw X4?
My problem is, When I put an object in one of the pages (one of folds), There is no way to see the same object in the other pages. What can I do?

Thanks,

Put all of your panels on 1 page and use a PANTONE color to set your fold mark. So when you are completed you will have 2 pages, front of brochure opened up and back of brochure opened up.

The problem with having all of your panel as separate pages is A—Not all of your panels are the same size, at least they better not be if you want it to fold correctly. B—It's a PITA to get images to span across multiple panels this way. C—Your printer will probably hate you when they receive your files and charge you a good chunk of change when they make it all 1 document like I said.

Also set your Pantone colour you're using for the fold mark to overprint.

Thanks for your replay.


May, I didn't explain my propose correctly. I attached my problem as a screen shot for you. I want to have an object in the all of pages like the picture.

You explained the problem fine, re-read post #2 for the answer. The problem is your document is 6 separate page, not 2 pages divided up into 6 panels.

This is for InDesign, but the same still applies

You want to have the green wiggly line at the bottom of the page run across all of the pages?

Then follow CkretAjint instructions - make you individual pages just one big page with fold marks or guides to indicate where the folds will be.

Your printer will then send just 2 pages to print rather than 6!!

This might help you with your fold measurements
