    Thanks,

    Thats kind of what I thought, that it was just some vestigial organ from the dark ages of print layout. Like the terminology for leading and kerning… I’d be interested to know what it used to be used for since Adobe, in their infinite wisdom, has included it for so many years, though. Just out of curiosity since I see it everyday. :)

    Thanks everyone.

    I know what a bleed is for, what I’m asking about are the extra crop marks that InDesign refers to as “Bleed Marks”

    In the print dialog under Marks and Bleeds, there is a list of available printer marks:
    – Crop Marks
    – Bleed Marks
    – Registration Marks
    – Color Bars
    – Page Information.

    I’m curious about the “Bleed Marks”. They print as an extra set of crop marks but aligned to the outside of the bleed. Why? What use do they have?

    thanks in advance
