Quick question, is there any reason why when placing Affinity Designer Artboards containing bleed into a APub doc the bleed area is not included, regardless of whether Bleed Box is selected as the Page Box?

Hi @Gabe,

I've attached a basic AD file containing three A6 artboards, each with a 5mm bleed where the solid background forms the bleed. I've then placed each artboard onto its own page in an A6 APub document which is also set with a 5mm bleed to match the AD file.

Whilst Page Box recognises there is a bleed and gives the option to set Bleedbox from the menu, the placed Artboards don't have the 5mm bleed included, which can be seen simply by moving the artboard on the page and/or by exporting to pdf inclusive of bleed.

Am I missing something/doing something wrong here?

Sorry I completely missed the "artboard" part. It's a bug we are already aware of. It should be working fine with documents without artboards though.

Thanks for confirming...
