Document and guides in Normal View Mode
A. Spread (black lines) B. Page (black lines) C. Margin guides (magenta lines) D. Column guides (violet lines) E. Bleed area (red lines) F. Slug
area (blue lines)
Document window notes:
• Lines of other colors are ruler guides which, when present, appear in the layer color when selected. See “Layers” on
page 78.
• Column guides appear in front of margin guides. When a column guide is exactly in front of a margin guide, it hides
the margin guide.
Create custom page sizes
You can create custom page sizes that appear in the Page Size menu in the New Document dialog box.
1 Choose File > New > Document.
2 Choose Custom Page Size from the Page Size menu.
3 Type a name for the page size, specify page size settings, and then click Add.
The New Doc Sizes.txt file that lets you create custom page sizes in previous version of InDesign is not available in
InDesign CS5.

You can save document settings for page size, columns, margins, and bleed and slug areas in a preset to save time and
ensure consistency when creating similar documents.
