Hi,

So my printer person said I need to set the inside bleed to 0 and top bottom and outside to 5mm, they also need single pages. however when i try and create a pages with a 0 inner each page only shows the bleed on the right, not alternating on the left then right, 

How can I export single pages with the inside bleed being 0. I have read through the forums and cannot get a clear answer,

I have Version 2.6.2

Hi @MatWill,

I'm not sure I follow...

If you have a facing page document with the Inner Bleed set to 0, then there shouldn't be any inner bleed on either the left or the right when exported as single pages as per the attached sample...

Can you upload a sample PDF or a screenshot showing what you're seeing...

I did the settings in the same way you showed, however when you make the document you can see the bleed in only on the right on every page. 

For me this is a big issue as the printer wont accept bleed on the left and right and cant accept the facing pages and wants to charge 45 bux to fix it each time, this would mean I would need to change to indesign.

I also tried to select odd or even pages but you cant apply bleed to individual or selected pages.

You would need to set your document up as Facing Pages (rather than non-facing pages), setting the Inner Bleed (rather than the Left Bleed) to 0 mm and then export your document using All Pages in the PDF Export Settings panel...

This will give you individual pages with no inner bleed and a 5 mm outer bleed on each page, on the right for odd pages and the left for even pages.

They will be single pages when exported using All Pages, as per the PDF attached in the earlier post...
