THE JOBS YOU RUN EVERY DAY

Cards, flyers, front and back.
Numbering included.

Business cards, flyers, postcards, labels, front-and-back jobs: the work that fills your press every week, imposed step-and-repeat in seconds. And when a job needs numbering, it happens in the same pass instead of a second program.

  • ✓ Front and back aligned, with the flip your press expects
  • ✓ Numbering when you need it: cut and stack, sequential, NCR copies

One sheet, ready for the press.

THE WHOLE JOB

From artwork to press,
nothing in between.

Layouts in seconds

Sheet, gap and margins recalculate the layout live. Optimal, vertical or horizontal. "Fit more" shrinks the art to the next layout when you need extra pieces.

CMYK untouched

Vector pass-through export: the PDF that reaches your RIP carries your color exactly as designed. Nothing rasterized, nothing converted.

Bleed handled

Reads the bleed your file brings. Single cut when colors meet, double cut with 2× gutter when they don't. Flat art gets masked from inside.

Front & back

Two-page PDFs become duplex jobs: left-right or top-bottom flip, and the sheet pager shows every side before you export.

Marks & guides

Corner crop marks or a full guide sheet that rides on top of the pile to steer the guillotine.

Real-world files

Straight answers

Does it respect my CMYK?

Pass-through: your vectors and color reach the output sheet untouched. Your RIP sees exactly what your designer built.

Is the numbering real cut-and-stack?

Yes. Piles come out offset so that after the guillotine, every book is in sequence. 2-part, 3-part, extra zeros, prefix, stub rotation.

How does it compare to the usual tools?

Most tools charge upwards of $260 a year and sell numbering as a separate purchase. Here it is included, the app is native on Apple Silicon, and Spanish is a first language.

Can I cancel easily?

Anytime, from your App Store settings. No calls, no forms. And CutMaster stays free either way.
