The document preview proxy has three views; to cycle through the views, click the proxy. The views are as follows: Standard view: Displays the relationship of a document page to the media. It shows the effects of various options such as paper size to imageable area, bleed and slug areas, and page marks, as well as the effects of tiling and thumbnails. The bleed area is shown in red and the slug area is shown in blue; purple is where they overlap. Text view: Lists media dimensions, document page dimensions, scale factor, and whether thumbnails have been requested, as well as number of tiles that will be generated (if tiling has been selected).
