cutting lines/marks; drawing lines without a table?

Hello
I'm looking for suggestions on how I can place cutting lines on my pages, so
that after printing people will know where to cut the page. As you can tell I am
no typographer myself, but usually these things are somewhere along the
border/margins of the page. Of course I could restructure my document so that
there would be blocks or cells that I could assign a border to, but I would much
more prefer a way to simply draw those lines on top by specifiyng place, length
and direction for example. Is this a case for embedding svg?
I appreciate any comment, suggestion, or links to resources. Thanks!
paul

ah... crop marks is what those things are called!!! I had specifically looked
up this term in a dictionary, but it told me the word for it was cutting
lines :( 

thank you for the help
