Hi there,
I encounter problems when generating my document in PDF, the result shows me a PDF with 4mm more!
my document is 210mmx148mm plus 5mm bleed per side.
Here is what I have at the "prepress" level:
I only checked "cut lines".
My PDF should total:
220mmx168mm, but the PDF makes it 224mmx172mm :(
I looked everywhere and don't understand where these extra 4mm come from.
Without crop lines, the document is 210x148.
Thank you for your answers and have a nice day!
Hello,
Just a guess, when you add crop marks, there is an option to offset these marks from the edge of the document to make it easier to cut the pages correctly. I would check this first. By adding this offset it would make the pdf page larger but the artwork would remain the same size.
Cheers!

Thanks for the reply !

--------- edit :
OH my gooooooooooooooood !!!
Just found the problem !!
The lehgth of the crop is 7mm, my bleed is 5mm. 7-5=2 2x2=4 mm
I've put the length at 5mm.
Problem solved ...
Thanks mnawij ! :)
Yes, the bleed only controls how far outside the page edge the content goes, the crop marks will usually extend outside the bleed area (if they are large enough)
