I'll try this next week and report back my results. Thank you.
Nope. This still isn't the right thing.

In order to be correct spacing for cuts, the gaps at the top/bottom of the page should be half what they are for the space between the objects. In other words, if I had two horizontal lines, they should be placed at 25% and 75% down on the page. Omnigraffle spaces them out at 33% and 66% down on the page. I want one cut to create two "tickets" that have equal whitespace above and below them.

I guess this has turned into an enhancement request to create an option in Canvas:alignment to have a means to change the behavior for distributing objects on a page such that they are tiled correctly for cutting.

Is this an appropriate place for an RFE?
