MORE INFORMATION

Crop marks indicate the horizontal and vertical edges of the page size configured in the Page Setup dialog box. In Publisher, crop marks are printed 0.25 inch outside the edges of the page size. Therefore, if the envelope page size is within 0.25 inch of the 8.5 x 11 inch sheet's edge, the crop marks are not printed.
