How to Use Force Bleed

  • import PDF; for this example, we want to produce two two-sided leaflets on the sheet
  • set crop marks
  • add another PDF
  • the first PDF has bleed of 2 mm and the second PDF has no bleed
  • on the scale palette set fill
  • when force bleed is activated the PDF without bleed will be scaled to fill the position including bleed, which will be created
  • if you want the resulting bleed to be 3 mm (while maintaining the size of 105 x 148 mm after cutting), turn off automatic positions size and set bleed 3 mm
  • the pages will be scaled and fill the positions including a 3 mm bleed; the trimmed size of pages fills only positions size without bleed if force bleed is deactivated
