misc33 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I've searched the forum unsuccessfully for an answer to this question: Can AD export a file that I can send to my printer, the same way I can with Illustrator? In Illustrator I have a preset which includes crop marks and printer's marks. I can't find these options in AD. It's really important for me to know whether the series of A3 posters with bleed that I need to begin creating asap should be done in Illustrator rather than AD. If I can't export the finished product with accurate colour and in a format that my printer can work with, I'll have to stick with Illustrator for this project. Here's a screenshot of an A3 poster created in Illustrator, exported as a pdf in the way I need it to be: Quote MacBook Pro 15" 32GB RAM, iPad Pro 12.9" + Magic Keyboard, Apple Pencil.

misc33 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 I've started the project in AI, will still check this thread in the hopes that I can transfer to AD if it can do what I need it to do.
