Gutter Margin: Margin on the "inside" of a printed book page. When books are printed, the margin on the inside is usually larger to allow for easy book handling. We assure your gutter margin when making plates for printing, free of charge.
From: ANSI/NISO/LBI STANDARD FOR LIBRARY BINDING - (inner margin, gutter margin, back margin)  The distance between the binding edge of a printed page and the printed area.

Header (in text/manuscript): Line of information that is the first text on the top of the page. Many times includes title and/or author.

Terms marked with an asterisk (*) are not generally used in our office.
