To the basics #2: What about bleed?


Recommended Posts

Hi, folks of AD!

 

Just a very simple question:

 

How I stablish, define or adjust the bleeds in a document?

 

Thanks ;)

OK, thanks. Thank you very very much.

 

I will keep a big eye on the roadmap thread of this forum.

 

I think that all the things that will you put on Affinity Design in the final release are very very big, necessary and in a good number. Lot of stuff, men!!!

 

So I thought that the bleeds it will be available in one of those betas that you release every now and then...

 

Anyway, ladys and gentleman, this thread is a MUST READ:

What is the work-around for bleed control at the moment? Just resizing the document from doc. properties?

 

Yes, setting your canvas size bigger will help but PDF X1a will still expect a trim box that we currently don't export. Most printers can handle PDF files without trim boxes but it's not their preferred workflow.

 

We will be introducing trim, bleed and other PDF improvements in the coming months.
