View Bleed Content

[evtonic3]

In Designer, Is there any way I can view what's in the bleed? Like I can in Publisher.

Hi @evtonic3,

You've got the View>Show Bleed option in Designer.  Not sure if that's exactly what you are looking for, what it's the only view bleed option in Designer that i'm aware of.

Possibly View > View Mode > Clip to View, but actually it does show bleed content either way, clip mode just clips objects outside bleed. If you use artboards all extending outside artboard is hidden always, it seems.

Thank you. The artboard was preventing me to see the bleed. But since I almost always work with multiple artboards for a promo, I would like this functionality even with artboards.

Also export to tiff with Include Bleed option enabled does not work. Bleed stays just white anyway, no matter what's on the bottom layer.

What I would do is draw a rectangle of a different colour on the document filling just the page and export again. TIFFs export with bleed here fine. You won't seen any indication of the page size and the bleed size with just a huge red colour and nothing to show where the page is inside the bleed area.

This is a known bug — in Artboards mode Export with Bleeds do not work.

I tested the tiff export and I'm seeing the same thing as nodeus. Export or slices do not export bleeds in Designer. Export PDF has bleeds fine even with turning off JPG so it uses tiff.
