Set Page: Envelope the objects in the Layout Window

Wrap the page to the colourways and objects such as logos and text ahead of printing


This will set the size of the page to envelope all objects in the Layout Window.  It is a very powerful feature but needs to be used with caution, as it does not work in conjunction with your printers page sizes. For this reason, it works best with AVA’s printer drivers. It also works very well in conjunction with the Tile feature.


  1. Lay out your colourways and associated objects on the Layout Window. There are a variety of layout techniques you can use, some of which are shown in the video below.
  2. Press Set Page in the toolbar.  If this option is not immediately available to you, you will need to customize the toolbar of your Layout Window.
  3. Go to Printer Type and ensure the correct printer driver is selected. This feature works best with large format printers and AVA printer drivers.
  4. Go to File Menu > Page Setup and select Set to Document (only available in AVA printer drivers, not Mac®OSPrinter drivers) and ensure your page does not exceed to total width of your media.
  5. Print your file as normal.
