Using Custom Bleeds
You can use Custom Bleeds XTensions software to create bleeds when printing, saving
a page as an EPS file, exporting a layout as a PDF file, and exporting a layout in PPML
format. The procedure is similar for all of these output options, but some bleed options
are only available for certain output methods.
• Print: The Bleed Type drop-down menu is in the Bleeds pane of the Print dialog box.
• EPS: The Bleed Type drop-down menu is in the Save Page as EPS dialog box. When
you save a page as an EPS file, the Page Items and Clip at Bleed Edge options are not
available. This is because these options create a bounding box that includes any item
extending off the page. This could result in a different bounding box for every page
in a layout, which could lead to inaccurate output.
• PDF: The Bleed Type drop-down menu is in the Export as PDF dialog box.
Using Clip at Bleed Edge
When creating a symmetric or asymmetric bleed, you can use the Clip at Bleed Edge
check box to define whether QuarkXPress uses the bleed value to clip items:
• If Clip at Bleed Edge is checked, QuarkXPress prints all layout page items and
pasteboard items that are at least partially within the bleed rectangle, and QuarkXPress
uses the bleed values to clip items.
• If Clip at Bleed Edge is unchecked, QuarkXPress prints all layout page items and
pasteboard items that are at least partially within the bleed rectangle, and does not
clip such items unless they extend beyond the limits of the printing device's imageable
area. Pasteboard items that are not within the bleed rectangle do not print.
If you store items on the pasteboard, make sure they are placed outside the bleed
rectangle when using a symmetric or asymmetric bleed. If they are within the bleed
rectangle, pasteboard items may print on final output.
DejaVu XTensions software (Windows only)
DejaVu XTensions software adds a list of recently opened projects to the File menu,
either at the bottom or as a hierarchical menu from the File > Open submenu. This
list enables you to access projects with increased speed and ease. You can also use
DejaVu to designate default folders for retrieving text and pictures, and for opening
and saving projects.
The File List feature adds a list of recently opened projects to the File menu, either at
the bottom or as a hierarchical menu from the File > Open submenu. You can choose
to display from three to nine recently edited and saved projects. To change File List
settings, use the controls in the File List pane of the Preferences dialog box
(QuarkXPress/Edit menu).
Use the Default Path feature to designate default folders for the following File menu
commands: Open, Import, Save, and Save as.
The Default Path feature does not work until you specify default paths. To do so, display
the Default Path pane of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit menu). Once
