Tips & Tricks / Adding Bleed to a pdf.
September 17, 2007, 09:25:33 AM
Keep in mind this trick is in Acrobat Professional 7.xx with Pitstop 6.5.

Depending on the file, you can expose hidden bleed.

 I use the wireframe view to see if there is image info outside the crop box, IF there is and sometimes there is.. then you can do a "Crop Pages" under the Document dropdown(command shift T) and check the "Custom" radio button, and then set the size to be larger than the documents current size.. ie. document is 8.5x11, set the custom size to 8.75x 11.25. click Ok. Do a save(Command S<- otherwise image will shift or has on me before, saving restructures the crop box, trim box, et al) then(and this is where pitstop comes in) you can select the crop box and delete it. This will expose the image that was before hidden..

EDIT: and now has an action built to do just this:..   see Jon's post below.
