Hello
Im pretty new to DTP so I wonder if anyone can help me. I need to create a half page ad, the only dimensions I have been given are:
Trim area: 125mm x 185mm
As I am going to be using quite a bit of colour I want to add a 'bleed' area of 3mm on every edge.
This is what I have done so far; I have created a Quark document of 131mm x 191mm (to include the 6mm bleed) and set the margins at 3mm, hopefully this allows me to visually see the trim area as I am working on the doc (is this what you do?) Now comes my problem, when I output to PDF i turn on 'registration' but the registration indicators are set about 6mm outside of the bleed area.
How can I set it so that the registration marks clearly indicate where the printed image should be cut?
Thanks for your help
