·	Aspect Ratio - The ratio of width to height. If the aspect ratio changes then photographs can appear stretched or squeezed.

·	Auto-Scale - Stretches the source document to fit the new area. If the area is not the same shape, the document may need to be stretched more in one direction. This is usually fine for text, but leads to photos that may look stretched or squeezed.

·	Binding Edge - A standard binding edge is for right/left. A flip binding edge is for folding top/bottom.

·	Crop - Cropping chops off portions of a document.

·	Duplex - Printing on both sides of the paper. Many printers include a duplexer that allows the printer to print on both sides of the paper without human intervention. ClickBook supports printers with duplexers.

·	Landscape - A paper orientation where the words on the page are going across the long edge of the paper. See Portrait.

·	Layout - A specific configuration of ClickBook that turns a print out in to a poster, booklet, card, brochure, etc.

·	Mini-Pages - The area on a piece of paper that the source document pages will be placed. Example: One piece of paper would have 4 mini-pages for a folded booklet. Two mini-pages on each side of the piece of paper.

·	Portrait - A paper orientation where the words on the page are going across the short edge of the paper. See Landscape.

·	Preserve Shapes - A Scaling option that keeps the shape. This scaling option is better for photos.

·	Sample Document - A document that works with a set of layouts. The many samples included with ClickBook show how the document works with ClickBook to create a print out.

·	Scaling - Stretching or shrinking a document to fit an area on a piece of paper. One-to-one scaling will keep the aspect ratio.
