Hello,

how can I add bleed to a file in Affinity Photo 2? 

The only option I see is margin. 

Then of course I can not export a PDF file with bleed

Thanks for your help!

AFAIK, you can't in AP, because only APub & AD have this option.

do you have any idea how to get the trim lines in my PDF for printing house in the "right place"? or shall I just get reimburse (i have just bought AP) and get AD instead?

I have tried and I am not able to get a PDF with the trim lines at the place where they should be. 

These kind of "bleed" will not be very helpful

If I want an 8 x 10 inch PDF with trim marks I would use Designer and make an 8 x 10 inch document with the usual bog standard 1/8th inch bleed. Then I would make a Photo document at 8 1/4 x 10 1/4 inches (or even 9 x 12 inches) and once finished in  photo I would place that Photo document in the Designer Document and export to PDF with including Bleed and Crop marks.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
