Fit to bleed marks - possible?

I have a about 75 images placed in InDesign that have been slightly enlarged and now I need to bring them back to fitting to the bleed marks (or the red line) proportionally.
And the second half of my project has the opposit problem. 76 images that need to be enlarged to fit to the red line.
I've been doing this by hand and dragging the blue frame to touch the red line then hitting fill frame proportionally, but it's taking a long time with so many images. Is there a faster way? Thanks!

The client doesn't have to see anything that extends past the edge of the page.
The won't see it when it's printed - so they don't need to worry about it.
I don't understand that they want to see as much of the image as possible? Are you giving them the Indd files or supplying a pdf for proof?
And I don't know how you'd go about resizing everything to fit exactly the bleeds - except by each individually.

Remove bleed marks from a PDF with creation tool unknown.

I have a PDF that was given to me for use on our wensite. This PDF contains bleed marks that I want to remove, is it possible to remove these using Acrobat 9 without cropping the pages?

Perhaps with the redaction tool.
Be well...

Changing the Color of Crop and Bleed Marks from Registration to Black

Hello all,
I have been searching the web and have tried numerous things but I can't seem to solve this problem. In InDesign crop marks and bleed marks are printed in "Registration" color. I understand why that is needed for plate printing. However I am laser printing and I need those marks to be in "Black" color. I have tried to edit the cropmark script by changing "Registration" to "Black" on the line with myRegColor. I have tried changing the printer setting to "Pure Black". However I can't get the crop and bleed marks to print in "Black". I have been on various websites and while there are people asking the question I haven't found a answer that works. I have searched this community as well but haven't found an answer that I understand. Before I manually make crop marks I want to make sure I am not missing something completely obvious.
With laser printing there is a different charge for color and B&W. The fact that the crop marks are coming in as color and not black means B&W pages are counted as color in the printing cost. I have tested the same docuement (which was just one page full of sample black text) with and without crop/bleed marks. When the document is printed without the marks the printer clicks as a B&W page. When it is printed with the marks the printer click as a color page.
I am creating the doc in InDesign and exporting to Acrobat for printing. I am using Creative Cloud so I think I have the most up to date version of InDesign.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

With CS6 or later you can export to grayscale and in that case the crops will be black only. Like this:
You should set your Appearance of Black to Rich black otherwise 100% black CMYK might export to something less than 100% grayscale. When you check the PDF in Acrobat set the simulation profile to the grayscale profile you export to.

How do I change the red bleed marks once I've created a file in illustrator?

If you are talking about changing the size of the bleed, just go to File > Document Setup.

Indesign/pdf: bleed marks for cover

I am trying to save a pdf book cover file with bleed marks before I send it to the printer. My cover is 6x9.25 with .125 bleeds, so I made an indesign document with those specifications, placed my photoshopped cover which included the bleed (6.25x9.5) and it looked fine--the border around the 6x9.25 portion was correct. I exported it to a pdf, though, having clicked the bleed marks box and the use document bleed settings box, and the pdf that resulted was the 6.25x9.5 cover with a white border around it and the bleed marks set in this white border so that one would trim just to the edges of the 6.25x9.5 box, not .125 inside this box on each side, or 6x9.25. That's obviously not helpful. I don't know what to do. I also tried making the original indesign document 6.25x9.5 with the bleeds set at 0, and then adding the bleeds in the export stage, which put them in the white border again, but this time so that there would be a .125 white border around the whole 6.25x9.5 image. Thanks for any help. I've looked all over the internet and from all I can see it should be really simple. I just can't make it work.

First: The crop marks that they are asking for are little lines that mark the edges of the final document.
InDesign and Illustrator have document options that allow you to set up the bleed and slug (like a second bleed with printer information). Photoshop does not have this option. InDesign and Illustrator allow you to select an option to print a document with the bleed and crop marks. You will not be able to set up these in the PDF either, because the PDF will put the crop marks at the edges of the bleed, not the final document.
You will probably need expand the size of the photoshop document and add crop marks manually. The crop marks should look like a corner, situated so that the point touches the outer most corners of the document.
Or you could place the images in InDesign and export PDFs from InDesign with the correct crop marks. You will have to set the document size to the actual size of the business card and the bleed to the width of the the bleed. Then place the Photoshop file centered in the InDesign document. Next you will export the document as a PDF, be sure to turn on "crop marks" under "Marks and bleeds" on the left hand side.

Specified Crop and Bleed marks staying in place, when scaling in proportion?

Hello,
A colleague of mine asked me a question I could not figure out...
In CS5.5 and below, if he had a document that let's say had a .5" bleed and he printed the document at 50%, the bleed marks would also scale in proportion and be .25".
Now in CS6, the Bleed and Trim marks stay the original size/location no mater what the document is scaled?
Has anyone else seen this?
thanks!

I can get crop marks by using the "Print" menu and printing to PDF. My question is: How do you handle bleeds when printing crop marks in the "Save" or "Print" stage? Aren't the crop marks placed at the file extents?

Bleed marks in pages

I am making an ad in Pages. It seems like I can't make bleed marks in the document but I can define non printable area. Is there any difference? And after I have set the non printeble area, how do I know where it is on the document? I can't see the non printeble area in the document.
I would appriciate some help and advice.
Thanks!

Are you working on a Mac or an iPad?

InDesign CC keeps crashing when I try to save out a printable PDF with Trim and/or Bleed marks.

Hello!
Everytime I try to save out a PDF (Printable, not Interactive) and tick trim or bleed marks, Indesign just crashes.
I've uninstalled InDesign and Acrobat. Made sure I had no Preferences saved from CS6, then installed again, but the same keeps on happening.
I have a print deadlien Monday so I really need this to work.
It used to work fine in CS6.
Can anybody help?

I recently had the same problem. I would try to publish and the program would lock up and crash.
I discovered it just to be a small bit of code I imputed wrong for an action. I had a comma instead of a quote before one of my commands.
Example... I had 'GoTo" instead of "GoTo"
I fixed the error and all worked fine!
But I wonder why such a small error would crash the program instead of flagging the error when I attempted to publish? That feature worked great in Flash!!
Thanks,
John O.

Trim and bleed marks

I created my file in Photoshop but then I had to transfer it to Illustrator to create trim and bleed marks. I managed to add crop marks by creating a rectangle, placing it in the middle of my picture and selecting object/crop area/create.
However, when I try converting my file to PDF, none of my marks can be seen. I also tried setting everything up in print dialog box but nothing works. I am creating a file for commercial printing. I am using Photoshop and Illustrator CS3. I really need help with this. Any ideas on how to solve it would be great!!!
Thank you!

Thanks. I did try it the other way as well, but then my crop marks show out of artboard for some reason and I need to adjust them manually, hence changing the trim size, which I don't want. If I don't adjust them to appear on artboard then they don't show in PDF. That happens when I use the rectangle in trim size.
However, when I only use the command that you mentioned without creating a rectangle first then my crop marks show in the middle of my artboard, in other words, if it was to be trimmed to the right size, the crop marks would be seen on the printout after trimming. I hope this makes sense, but I've been trying to do this for two days now and I am losing my mind.

Can you save your crop/bleed marks as well as your slug when saving your Indeign document as an eps

Can you save your crop/bleed marks as well as your slug when saving your Indeign document as an eps

Let me guess: Your printer asked you to do this, right? Your printer is living in the 1990s and is probably trying to place this in a QuarkXPress file. And I'll suggest you should run, not walk, to find another more modern printer!
But, if you have to do it, you could export as a PDF file (including the marks, bleeds and slug). Then in Acrobat, choose File > Export (Acrobat 9 Pro) or File > Save as > Other Formats > Encapsulated PostScript (Acrobat X Pro).

Crop Marks not in correct place when Bleed applied - possible Bug/Error?

Apologies if anyone has posted this elsewhere - I checked the Help, FAQ, Forums and Googled it - but I really can't find a solution to this minor problem I'm having.
I have created a document that will be cut to 120mm x 120mm, I wanted to include a 10mm bleed around it so I made my Photoshop doc 140mm x 140mm.
When I go to the Print dialogue I have checked "Corner Crop Marks", set the bleed to 10mm and in the preview I can see that the crop marks are inside the image, marking out the correct 120x120 area. However, when I click Print the marks appear on the paper at the 140mm x 140mm area.
Has anyone else had this error, and even more importantly, has anyone found a solution?
I am using Photoshop CS3 (a site license of Web Premium), on a Mac G5 running Windows XP SP2. I have other machines & Photoshop versions available, I am going to test it on them to try and find out where the problem lies.
I am producing guides to using Photoshop at the moment and I don't want to include something that can't be done!
Kev Gilmour

Wow... I'm using Photoshop CS5 for Windows and have just encountered this very same problem. The print preview shows the corner crop marks in the correct location as designated by the Bleed... setting (.1"); but when I print, the bleed setting gets ignored and the corner crop marks revert to the outer edges of the image.
This happens when I print to my Epson color laser or to my Brother b/w laser. It occurred to me to try one other test - and interestingly enough, when I printed to a PDF, the corner marks appeared correctly in the output!
So far, I haven't found any other information on this apparent bug besides this ancient thread.
Anyone willing to test this out and give their results? Thanks!

Save pdf with crop and bleed marks in Photoshop cc 2014

! !Hi,
I used to save PDF for print with crop marks in Photoshop by setting them up when using "save as". Don't have that option any more in CC 2014. Is it a new way to do it or I have something turned off?
Thanks!

I can get crop marks by using the "Print" menu and printing to PDF. My question is: How do you handle bleeds when printing crop marks in the "Save" or "Print" stage? Aren't the crop marks placed at the file extents?

Larger Bleed Options + Bleed Marks (similar to InDesign)

I'd love to see the Bleed for Illustrator go above the 1" max (maybe not as far as InDesign's 6", but bigger would still be nice). Working in large/gran format, we often work in bleeds up to 4", and it'd be nice to not always have to reduce our files to a scale just to accomodate the program's lack of bleed.
It would also be nice to have an option to include Bleed for printer's marks. InDesign currently does this, and it doesn't seem like it'd be a difficult addition to Illustrator (since Bleed is now a standard feature).

No. If the document is meant to have bleed you need to include it in the PDF (You are sending PDF, not native files, right?), along with crop marks. You can see the PDF on screen, even if you can't print it full bleed. The commercial printer is going to print on a larger sheet and trim off the excess to give you edge-to-edge prints.

Quicktime to .flv with chapter marks - possible?

I want to export from FCP via quicktime conversion then convert the QT files to .flv files using flash encoder but i want to keep my QT chapter marks within the .flv file so that the viewer can jump to each chapter - is this possible?

The markers actually show up when I playback on Quicktime X. I tried Make Movie again from Premiere to a Quicktime movie with DV25 codec (HUGE file size since it's not H.264), and the markers actually work right. What gives?
