Adobe® InDesign®

When using Adobe® InDesign® to prepare your flyer, poster, magazine or book for full colour printing, it's best to supply an exported PDF file rather than the original InDesign file. This means you don't need to worry about supplying all the files and images while still maintaining maximum quality and ensuring fast turn-around.

PDF export settings for Adobe® InDesign®

1. Start by using the built in 'Press Quality' preset available at the top of the PDF export window.
2. Then Select 'Marks and Bleeds' in the left hand side of the window.
3. Make sure 'Crop Marks' and 'Page Information' are checked on the right hand side.
4. Enter 3mm for each bleed value in the bottom right of the window, and make sure 'Use Document Bleed Settings' is unchecked.

5. Now you can export your PDF and send it to Clydeside Press in Glasgow for fast turn-around printing.
