Hi everybody,

cannot place in Illustrator a PDF with a bleed but without crop marks. Until recently, it worked.

Correct answer 67martin

Hi Monica, can you please confirm you are using a PC (and not a Mac)?

This may be a bug affecting only this particular language version of Illustrator, or only Illustrator 27.2 on a PC.

Martin, you can have multiple Illustrator versions installed at the same time, if you re-install version 27.2, say yes if it asks you if you want to overwrite your existing preferences. You might want to report a bug, be sure to note your language version and OS:

Hi Luke, I have just one version of Illustrator on Mac. During re-installation older version I confirmed overwriting the preferences. Now it works.

Select the "show import options" checkbox when placing.

I know, but it does not work, look:

 

This should be placed correctly:

Without crop marks and file information.

It was always possible to place the pdf not as a link, set the placement method "bleed", after which the pdf was placed with a bleed, without crop marks.
I need to insert a pdf into Illustrator in this way and I need to edit it.
It's not possible now. I do every update, is it possible that the error is in the last one?


Yes it's right! I reinstalled the previous version and it works!
I've been thinking about it here for an hour! Lost time!
