Question 1

What does Slug refer to?

Answer 1

Doc identification.

When a document goes to the printing press, there are a few technical marks printed outside the document area, and these are important for high-quality printing.

The slug area is just one of these optional page marks.

Essentially, the area is located outside of the normal printing boundaries, and it contains information about the printing job.

An area that allows for extended images and objects that allow for trimming mistakes
