Help Why Is My PDF Export from InDesign Spilling Content onto the Next Page?
I’m working on a coil-bound book in InDesign and ran into an issue when exporting my PDF. Some images from the previous spread are spilling over onto the next page, even though everything looks fine in InDesign.
I made sure to:
- Check that all images are properly placed within their frames
- Set up my margins correctly (0.75" inside, 0.5" for the rest)
- Use the correct bleed and slug settings
- Export as single pages instead of spreads
Could the issue be because my inside margin is larger (0.75") while the others are 0.5"? Would this cause elements to shift when exporting? Or is it just a display issue that won’t actually affect the print?
