Inconsistent Bleed in PDF Exports from InDesign vs. Illustrator

New Here ,
Aug 07, 2024 Aug 07, 2024

Hi,

 

I'm having trouble with export to pdf with bleed. When I export the same file from indesign and illustrator, bleeds are just notr the same. I have indesign file with numeration with dimensions 80x150mm + 3 mm bleed and ai file with the same dimensions. When I export to pdf from both programs artboard dimension stays the same but bleed is different.

 

IDD file:

 AI file:

PDF export (first one - Indesign file has actual 3mm bleed and Illustrator file has actual 5mm bleed when printed):

In indesign I use options High quality print and in Marks and in bleeds settings I check the boxes Crop marks and Use document bleed settings. In Illustrator I use export options High quality print and in Marks and in bleeds settings I check the boxes Trim marks and Use document bleed settings.

If I save the same file from Illustrator in Indesign than the bleeds are aligned.

 

Any idea why this problem occurs?

Can you post screenshots of the export dialogs from both apps?

You are not talking about bleeds, you experience different register and cut marks setting. 

Noormally they are not needed at all in modern times. If they are different, it does not matter, they are cut away anyway. Why do you think you will need them?
