Bleed lines not showing on document Affinity Designer


Recommended Posts

As soon as you make an artboard you lose your visible bleed because the artboard act's more like a page mask - hope this gets fixed???

It's fixed in the current 1.9 beta on Windows. Bleed shows for the active (selected) Artboard.

Thats great news Walt - I've not installed the most recent beta, although I did notice with the previous 1.9 beta that bleed guides show on Artboards but there's still no visible bleed for the artboards contents - are you saying this is now fixed?

For my personal workflow I’ve found this actually much less important than I originally thought (the bleed issue HAD been irritating to me, too). As things are I find myself now doing all final layout stages in and exporting all my PDFs for print from Publisher. No need for Artboards (possibly) not showing bleed there as there are Pages instead which generally behave as they should – all kinds of views possible there.

As the apps are (and have always been) so reasonably priced and – furthermore – are so convincingly integrated I don't really see why NOT to use Publisher (and not Designer) for finally putting together print ready artwork. Here you've got all the visual control you need.

Using Designer just to create the (vector) assets and having Publisher as the app to do the proper layout in seems quite a nobrainer for me these days. Copy and Paste, the Assets panel and the Affinity Studio Link make it – at least for me – easy and convenient
