<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have accomodated bleeds in XEP by enlarging
the FO page dimensions by 2-3mm on each side. In my case, I also enlarged
the body margins to bring the body area back to the intended size, because my
bleed content was in the start and end areas. I give instructions to
the print vendor as to the PDF page size and trim size, and have not had a
problem with this method. However, I don't think it would work if you must
have crop marks as well, because in XEP those start at the corners of the fo
page size.</FONT></DIV>

do not protrode onto bleed</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The purpose of the bleed is that so that when you have an image or a
color that needs to go to the very edge of the page, with a bleed you can make
the crop marks further in so that you can be sure that when the printers do
the cutting, the image/color goes to the very edge, because if they cut a bit
less otherwise there will be a white edge on the paper.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So is there no automatic way to do this with RenderX? Will I need to do
it manually using <fo:table>?<BR><BR></DIV>
