Empty bleed

[martin633]

Hi all,

Im working with a file that should be 120x240 mm. It is white, but it has a green square at the top (from left to right). So i dont want whitespace left and right from the green square. So i made a document that is 120x240 mm and i set the bleed to 2 mm. In the bleed i added the (extra) green for the square.
My problem is: when i export it to pdf, i get empty bleeds! so no green...

Am i using bleed for something it isnt meant for? I thought that when i add something IN the bleed, it will be shown @ the pdf.. Or am i using the wrong export-settings? I get the bleed, so thats ok, but i dont want it 100% white.

Thanks in advance!

Martin
