Where's my BLEED?

[DrStrik9]

I have a simple file prepared in Adobe Illustrator, with a .125" bleed. I saved the pdf from AI as normal. But in Acrobat DC, I can't see the bleed!

I need to assure myself that the bleed has survived. HOW do I do this in Acrobat DC?

Thanks for any guidance.

Correction: Acrobat PRO DC.

To show the various boxes, select: Acrobat > Preferences > Page Display > Page Content and Information > Show art, trim, & bleed boxes

You can also bring up the Crop dialog and see the settings for the individual boxes.

Hey George,

Thanks for your reply. Good info which will help in the future.

But ... I just figured out that I didn't check the BLEED box when saving from AI.

DOH! (Old noob tricks)  -- The bleeds are all there now.  :+)
