Hello everyone,

Well, I'm coming to the forum because despite my research, I can't find a solution...
My "problem" is quite basic: I am working on Publisher 2013 and I would like to export this work to a PDF format that includes bleed marks and everything anprinter might require. The solution should be fairly simple, but I'm going in circles...

Those who can help me will have my eternal gratitude (at the very least!)

    Hello

    For exporting to PDF, it should be in the file menu.

    As for the rest, I don't know.

    Hello,

    Yes indeed, it's in "File". But it's mainly "the rest" that interests me! :)

    Hello,

    you should find "the rest" in the File tab, Export, Create a PDF or XPS document, then the icon of the same name.
    Then click on the Options button, select the desired quality for the PDF document, and then the Print Options button.
    You will find "Crop Marks", "Bleed Marks", etc. there.
    You probably won't find "everything a printer wants," especially regarding colors, as for that you would need to use professional PDF creation software, but that should be enough.

    Thank you for your response.
    Indeed, it's quite limited. Wouldn't there be a solution using software like PDF Creator or an equivalent?

      You need to know your printer's requirements. You provide them with a PDF with bleed marks, what else do they want?

      To get something professional, you need... professional software, like Adobe Acrobat Pro, but it's expensive, and in any case, it won't work miracles with a Publisher document as a source.

      Otherwise, you can try the Nitro Pro trial version (https://www.gonitro.com/fr/pro
