Bleeds, slugs, and pasteboard enhancements
Set up bleed and slug areas outside the document area. You can specify a distance outside the
page within which page objects can bleed. You can also specify a slug area where information
can be added outside the page area and be included in output if desired. Slugs are commonly
used in advertising to show information about an ad that is not part of the ad itself.
In the Document Setup dialog box, clicking the More Options button reveals the Bleed and Slug options.
Bleeds and slugs are completely integrated into all phases of your workflow. Adobe InDesign
CS adds Bleed and Slug preview modes, which display a document on screen as it would
appear when trimmed to the bleed area or slug area. (Adobe InDesign 2 already includes a
Preview mode that displays a document trimmed to the page edge.) As you would expect,
bleed and slug areas can optionally be included in print or PDF output.
