Hi all,
I'm looking for the bleed function in Textmaker 2024. I can't find it anywhere, and the word 'bleed' doesn't even return any results when I search this forum. The absence of any mention of a bleed - let alone the absence of a bleed function within the software itself - strikes me as mysterious! Is it called something else? If there is no bleed function in Textmaker, how come I'm the only one who feels the need for one?!!!

Re: Bleed function
Are you referring to the space beyond the page edges, in order to allow images to reliably fill the printed page from edge to edge?
Re: Bleed function
I would also find this function very useful, although I know it's not common in processors. It would be a HUGE leg-up on Microsoft Word in terms of book layout and design, however. Adobe InDesign and Affinity Publisher handle bleeds well, allowing you to also remove interior bleeds if needed.

Re: Bleed function
Text editor software doesn't include a built-in function for bleed handling. At the user level, you'll need to adjust the page size to be slightly larger than the standard print dimensions and resize any background color/fill to accommodate the bleed.
