How to Create Print-Ready Design Files Using Affinity Publisher
1. Open Affinity Publisher and navigate to "File" - "New." In the layout panel, input the desired finished size and choose the correct units. Set DPI to 300. In the Color panel, select CMYK and "Japan Color 2001 Coated".
2. In the margin panel, input at least 0.125 inches or 3mm. In the bleed panel, input 0.125 inches or 3mm.
3. In the new document, the white area represents the finished part, while the purple lines indicate bleed lines, and the blue lines denote safety lines.
4. When adjusting colors, ensure to use CMYK. Verify that your images are in CMYK mode and have a resolution of 300dpi.
5. Extend the background to the bleed lines and ensure important content and text are within the blue lines.
6. After completing the design, select "Export" and choose the save type as PDF.
7. Select "PDF (Press Ready)" and do not check "Embed ICC Profile."
Open the saved PDF to confirm it includes bleeds. Click on "File" - "Properties" and check the fonts to ensure all have the "Embedded Subset" flag.
