General
The sprocket holes must be a circle or

The holes must be cleanly cut.
The perforation between pages should
not extend all the way to the edges of
the paper.
At the perforation between pages, the
horizontal and vertical perforation cuts
should not cross.
The ratio of the cut/uncut length at the

Multi-part forms

It is best to use pressure-sensitive
multi-part forms.
The form sheets should be securely
joined together along the left and right
edges by crimping, spot-gluing, or tape
stitching. For the best printing quality,
use multi-part forms joined with
spot-gluing. Never use multi-part
forms joined with metal staples.
Crimping should be pressed in from
the original sheet side and go
completely through all copy sheets.
Also, crimping should be double-sided;
using single-sided crimping may cause
the printer to jam.
For multi-part forms joined with
spot-gluing, be sure the spots of glue
are spaced the same way on the left
and right edges of the paper.
The binding area should be flat and
should not have creases.
Overlapping multi-part forms should
be joined together at the top of the
pages and not along the sides of the
pages.
The sprocket holes of all sheets in the
form should be aligned properly.
The binding position should be outside
the printable area.
