  .pdf    a guide page at full document size. Place it on a locked
          background layer, build on top, then hide or delete that
          layer before you export. It is a guide, not artwork.
  .svg    the same guides in a group called "guides". Open in
          Illustrator, Inkscape, Affinity Designer or Figma and
          delete that one group when you are finished with it.
  .jsx    an InDesign script. File > Scripts, or double click it from
          your Scripts Panel folder. It builds the document with the
          right size, margins, columns and per-edge bleed.
  .docx   a Word document already set to the page size, margins and
          column count. Replace the text and leave the layout alone.

The column grid is our recommendation, not the printer's rule. The
printer's required printable area is drawn separately in cyan on the
PDF and SVG so you can always tell the two apart.

Presses vary and printers revise their guidelines. Run a test PDF
through your printer's own preflight before you order.
