The latter may seem odd since 2 x 234,1 makes 468,2 mm which is exactly 18,2 mm more than the 450 mm long sheet I mentioned in the beginning. That way I will get sheets 320 mm high (as intended) and 234,1 mm wide. I set top and bottom slug to 20,3 mm and in- and outside slug to 9,1 mm. My solution: I set up page size to 215.9 x 279.4 mm (8.5 x 11”).

SRA3 (320 x 450 mm or 12.59 x 17.71) is oversize A3 which can be compared with 12 x 18″ when designing full bleed 11 x 17″ publications. Actually it is a booklet intended for the US but we need to use our local (Swedish) paper size.Ī3 (297 x 420 mm or 11.69 x 16.53″) is the European equivalent to US 11 x 17″. I know my question at the end not is 100% related to bleed but my post is not completly off topic since my problem includes bleed and bleed trimming.Ĭhallenge: Create a letter sized saddle stitched full bleed booklet that have to be printed on SRA3. If you leave them set to zero, InDesign will trim the page at the page edge, so you’ll get no bleed at all, even if the objects are bleeding to the pasteboard: But if you didn’t make bleed guides, it’s no problem - just leave the checkbox off and type in some bleed values yourself.

Ultimately, the most important thing to keep in mind when making bleeds is not whether there are guides there, but what you choose in the Marks and Bleed pane of the Print or Export PDF dialog box. You can just eyeball it, extending objects on to the pasteboard. Once you have bleed guides, you can easily “snap” objects to them so you’re sure they’re bleeding far enough off the page.įinally, you do not need bleed guides to make objects bleed. If you have already created your document, you can get the same bleed guides by choosing File > Document Setup, then clicking the More Options button. 125 in, or 3 mm) is a reasonable amount to type in. To add a bleed guide in the New Document dialog box, click More Options to see the Bleed and Slug guide options. Second, InDesign offers bleed guides on the pasteboard. The result is some wasted paper, but the colors/images “bleed off” the page. You extend an object off the page (past the page boundaries), then print it with trim marks (also called crop marks), then the output provider (bindery or printer or whatever) cuts the edges of the page at those trim marks. How do you put in bleeds after you have created and saved an InDesign file?įirst, for anyone who doesn’t know, a bleed is a way to get something to print to the edge of the page.
