Can I make objects that do not print? Like a guide box for labels.

Question

I wanted to print labels for my memorex DVD labels but couldn't find templates for pages.  The doc files open but pages prints the lines of the guides which are never exactly correct so they look horribly uneven.  Can I make a separate layer that doesn't print or objects that won't print but are selectable.

Answer 1

The 'guides' are probably text boxes, into which you place the text.
Select one of these, then use the Stroke controls in the Format bar to set the stroke to 'none.'
Choose View > Show Layout to see the position of the box (and other layout elements, such as the left and top margins and the header box in this screen shot):
When printed, or viewed with Show Layout turned off, the same portion of the same page will have this appearance (not including the difference in scale caused by the automatic scaling of graphics on this board):
"View" in the instruction above means either the View button on the Toolbar or the View menu in the Menu Bar.
