hello!

im printing some big format wall, and i was wondering what markers should i use, that it would be easier to align panels when installing...

Or, if anyone has any explanation what does any mark do, or when or why do we use them...

i noticed that that there are several diferent markers...

Tile overlap marks:
Zero-line marks - Crop - Sewing:
Edge marks - that i know
Custom (sewing/Folding) - Enable sewing marks - Visible

thx...

We just use normal corner crop marks and tell the installer how much overlap.
They have to align joins by eye anyway.

Sewing marks I only use for pole banners so our stitcher knows where to fold. Adds a dashed line a certain distance from the edge.

For murals, the only mark I ever add is a center mark if it's a really big mural so we can install from the middle out.

I've never used any type of marks for aligning panels or ever seen any on supplied graphics we were hired to install.

I just tile with an overlap, and leave it to the installer, most of the time I am the lucky one, to line it up
