Bleed

That’s the Safe Area sorted out. Design your job making sure any images that need to Bleed are dragged to the very edge of the document. Don’t forget to keep all important data & text 7mm from the edge of the edge of the sheet (remember, that’s the inner border you created). When you have finished your design you need to create a PDF. Choose File > Safe As > Photoshop PDF Give it an name and a destination, then SAVE Choose High Quality Print and DON’T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE. SAVE PDF Open the PDF and check to make sure everything is there, remember the 3mm on the outer edge will be trimmed off. But I want A5. Ok, follow all of the previous instructions but change the width to 154.5mm (15.45cm) and the height to 216mm (21.6cm). View > New Guide and set 4 guides exactly 3mm from the edge of the sheet. (Vertical ones at 0.3cm & 15.15cm) (Horizontal ones at 0.3cm & 21.3cm) View > New Guide and set 4 guides exactly 1.0cm from the edge of the sheet. (Vertical ones at 1.0cm & 14.45cm) (Horizontal ones at 1.0cm & 20.6cm) Then start designing. But I want to design it in A4 but have it printed as A5 Ok, but we need 5mm bleed and 10mm safe area so when we reduce it to A5 nothing is too tight. So, follow all the previous instructions but the document size should be 220mm (22cm) and the height should be 307mm (30.7cm). View > New Guide and set 4 guides exactly 5mm from the edge of the sheet. (Vertical ones at 0.5cm & 21.5cm) (Horizontal ones at 0.5cm & 30.2cm) View > New Guide and set 4 guides exactly 1.5cm from the edge of the sheet. (Vertical ones at 1.5cm & 20.5cm) (Horizontal ones at 1.5cm & 29.2cm)
