Hey there,

I want to finish my brochure. But the printer's always call me because the cut part I chose, is always a mess.

I always use 3 mm.

The first one... The cut part on the top is too small. The bottom is correct.

Second one... obviously. The chaos is not in the picture in designer. But when I print it... The cut is distorted.

In the third one... The bottom has no 3 mm cut parts.

I hope you can help me. :( The settings are always correct in the system. But the result in pdf is absolutely wrong...

Because in v1.6.x the bleeds don't show o.O create a rectangle 154mm x 216mm no fill but a fine red stroke, say 0.05mm this will show where your bleeds are, you can turn it off or delete it prior to export.

The red frame is just a rectangle sized to 154mm x 216mm to simulate the bleed lines, its just a workaround to compensate for the lack of actual bleed lines showing.

A5 = 148mm x 210mm

154mm x 216mm is 148mm x 210mm + 6mm (3mm for each side)

In Designer 1.7 Beta the bleed lines now show and can be set on initial document creation.
