Nice tutorial Ms. I am also interested in graphic design work, especially InDesign.

[@GDHT]

Thank you! InDesign is a lot of fun, especially for magazine layout and books!

[@thespecialguy]

This needs to be a prerequisite for any designer. I've worked in print for 20 plus years and the worst designers for setting things to be print ready are university graduates !!

[@GDHT]

As a university graduate, I had ZERO clue how to do this coming out of school. And...I have a feeling my teachers didn't know how to do it. 🙄 Luckily, KZbin saved the day in my first job.

Hi! I just wrote a book and am needing to add a trim size to the pages. Right now the size from Canva that I created the doc as is wrong for the printing as well...any advice would be so helpful! thank you!

[@GDHT]

It's hard to know without seeing it. What size is the Canva doc, and what size is it supposed to be?

Great video!

[@GDHT]

Thank you!!

[@liquidmocofilmsllc4915]

can you do this with multiple images on one sheet? I have 9 small images to a paper but it will not add the crop marks in when i check mark the crop mark box.

[@GDHT]

No - they'll need to be on separate artboards for that to work.

[@lizbradbury2486]

Kind of hard to follow when you get to deleting the box as it deletes my guide lines as well

[@GDHT]

Oh I see! You can lock your guides with view > guides > lock guides. Then you can’t delete them

how to do this for artworks larger like 10ft or so

[@GDHT]

Really, crops and bleeds are only necessary if you're printing a stack that will be cut. Usually 10 ft artwork is created and cut one at a time, so they don't have to worry about the art shifting. You can definitely ask your printer, though. Mine specifically said no bleed at all or crop marks.

[@TheSelenaTorres]

Is there a way to do this with illustrator?

[@GDHT]

Yes! My next video will show how to do it in all 3 major programs (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop). But the short version is, save as a PDF, then on the left choose Marks and Bleeds.

but we don't have time to make with many clicks😀😀 I use Acrobat ptint production>preflight> 3mm mark and 3mm bleed setting. Next when there is no bleed and mark inside file, then one click and auto generated bleed and mark. This is called a rush moment solution.

[@GDHT]

It's a good option! Just have to remember to set up bleed area in the Photoshop doc.
