setting images to bleed guide lines


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know when using publisher to send to a off set printing.... should you size the images all the way to the bleed line or can i just make sure they go over the first bleed guideline.. and is it bad to have images close to the page border - i have a .25 border

I am not sure what your problem is?

a) Do your images are placed right at the edge of the page border? If this is the case, I would recommend that parts of the image would cover the whole bleed are. Normally 3 mm are enough.

b) If your images are not placed at the edge of a page order, you do not need the images to cover the bleed area.

But maybe I did not get your point here, so a screenshot of the page would be helpful.

The orange rectangles in the attached image represent placed images. In most cases images covering a bleed of 1,5 mm should be fine, but I experienced a "professional" printing service, which had an offset of 2 mm cutting the paper. :(
