I need a macro to put crop marks on pages in LaTeX documents, so as to indicate cut sheet boundaries. In other words, the LaTeX output is originally printed on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, but the cut sheet size for the final printed document will be smaller (say 7 x 8.5 inches). (The cut sheet size is determined by \textwidth, \textheight, left margins, header and footer height, etc.) The crop marks appear outside of the cut sheet area, and indicate the edges of the cut sheet. The crop marks consist of short horizontal and vertical lines near the cut sheet boundaries, and should appear on all pages (including new Chapter pages). ..................... . | | . .__ __________ __ . . | | . . | Cut | . . | sheet | . . | region | . .__ |_________| __ <--- . . | . | | <----- Crop marks. . . ..................... <--- Laser-printer paper size. I haven't the faintest idea of how to do this. Can anyone tell me? Kevin Thompson thompson@prandtl.nas.nasa.gov
