This Fixup is activated by default, which is indicated by the symbol [1]. This Fixup inserts an overprinting Dieline in the desired size, starting from the center of the image.

Figure 2: The dialog of the Fixup Add a Dieline from the Center, with the Add Dieline Fixup activated with the values for the Corner Type option

The following options are available to create a Dieline from the center of the image:

• Skip generation of the Dieline if a Dieline already exists [4] – activate this option if you want to prevent the creation of a Dieline if a Dieline already exists in the Spot Color from the Spot Color Name [19] input field.
• Width [5] – enter the width of the Dieline to be created here. For the Variable Content [6], select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for the width should be retrieved.
• Height [15] – enter the height of the Dieline to be created here. For the Variable Content [16], select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for the height should be retrieved.
• Horizontal Offset [7] – enter the horizontal offset (X-axis) of the Dieline here. For the Variable Content [8], select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for the horizontal offset should be retrieved.
• Vertical Offset [11] – enter the vertical offset (Y-axis) of the Dieline here. For the Variable Content [18], select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for the vertical offset should be retrieved.
• Line Width [9] – enter the Line Width of the Dieline to be created here. For the Variable Content [19], select the desired placeholder - Database field or User-defined field - from which the value for the Line Width should be retrieved.
• Corner Type [10] – select a type for the corners in the selection menu. The following options are available:
  • Rounded – the corners of the Dieline are rounded. If the corners are not to be rounded, enter 0 mm for the Corner Radius option.
  • Beveled – the corners of the Dieline are rounded. If the corners shouldn't be rounded, enter 0 mm for the Corner Radius option.
  • Variable Content [20] – select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for selecting the corner type should be retrieved. The following values must be found in the selected field for the type to be selected:
    • Round
    • Bevel
• Corner Radius [11] – enter the radius of the corners here if they are to be rounded or bevelled. For the Variable Content [21], select the desired placeholder - Database field or User-defined field - from which the value for the corner radius should be retrieved.
• Spot Color Name [12] – select a Technical Color in the selection menu with which the Dieline is to be created. All system-wide defined technical colors that have the Cut Contour type are available for selection.
• Layer Name [13] – enter the name of the Layer on which the new Dieline should be created. If you do not want to create your own Layer, remove the name from the input field. For the Variable Content [22], select the desired placeholder - database field or user-defined field - from which the value for the layer name should be retrieved.
• Overprint State [14] – select the overprint status for the Dieline that should be created here. You can choose between Overprint and Knockout.

Click on the Add icon [2] (Figure 1) to activate the Fixup Additional Dieline. This Fixup can be used to create a second Dieline with the specified Offset.

With the exception of the Width or Height options and the Layer Name option, the same parameters are available for this Fixup as for the Add Dieline Fixup. Find a detailed description of all options in section 3.1.1.

This Fixup is activated by default, which is indicated by the symbol [3] (Figure 1). Add all information on processing steps (ISO 19593-1) for the newly created Layer with this Fixup.

All subsequently added Dielines should be created by default according to ISO 19593-1 on the Structural layer in the Structural group of the Cutting type. Find further information on the ISO standard in the article Processing Steps ISO 15931-1.
