BINDER TRIM
After the addendum is generated for the Die, the binder must be trimmed to connect to the Die. This function allows the user to trim the binder to complete the die face design. If the addendum is defined for the die, the POP Line is used to trim the binder. If there is no addendum defined, the Die Boundary line will be used to trim the binder. Figure 6.4.17 shows the functions available in the dialog window for the BINDER TRIM function.

EDIT LINE
These functions enable the user to edit the trim line. Refer to Section 6.1,
LINE/POINT, for a detailed description of EDIT LINE functions.
BOUNDARY
There are two ways of trimming. The trim line can be used as an inner
boundary or outer boundary. If OUTER is toggled ON, the
portion outside of the trim line will be kept. If INNER is toggled
ON, the portion within the trim line will be kept. If there is an inner
addendum, for example, the inner binder trim is required.
SELECT and DESELECT
The SELECT button enables the user to select a line from the current
database as the trim line.
The DESELECT button enables the user to deselect the selected line.
After selecting the desired trim line, click APPLY to trim the binder.
