Staff DWright Posted May 16, 2022 Staff Share Posted May 16, 2022 As @Hensmentioned it is best to speak to your printer regarding these setting as them may need a particular PDF/X output and may also require you to use their own ICC profile for the PDF.

IanSG Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The printer may also want to specify crop marks and bleed settings. Quote AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoySue1939 Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 Sorry I must be a bit thick here. How do I show crop marks and bleed settings and why? I used to use Page Plus 8 and the Printer never complained. I just need to find the most effective PDF format from the Affinity Publisher program. It all looks good on my PC and prints out well but they have suddenly started to be picky and I do not know why. They are difficult to talk to as well as they just use terms which are over my head. After 11 years of doing this I am rather puzzled and do not know which way to turn. Thank You, Sue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
