Summary 0008417: Bleed is not handled correctly on master pages
Description It looks like the bleed for the left and right master pages is swapped. The attached image demonstrates the problems related to that.
Steps To Reproduce - Create a double-sided document with bleed on all but the inside edge [1]
- Enter the Master Page view; note that this is the *left* master page [2]
- Add two box shapes on the master page; the dark green area represents the bleed [3]
- Obviously, what we see in the document view is not what we wanted [4]
- Tweaking the Master Page [5] seems to "fix" the document view [6]
- However, when exporting the document as PDF/X-3, the bleed on the outside edge of the left pages is not printed [7]

Thanks for the report, it was a bit difficult to track down, but now it's fixed :)

Thanks for looking into this issue! :)

I can confirm that the bleed behaviour of the master pages is now fixed.

However, the PDF/X-3 export problem still persists, i.e. on left pages, the outside edge bleed contents of the master page are not exported. (See (7) on my original image.)

Works as expected. Bleeds must be configured in prepress tab on pdf export.

Sorry to be nagging...

Yes, I know that bleed must be configured in the Pre-Press tab. If you don't configure it, you won't see the bleed in the PDF *at all*.

However, my problem is that I *have* configured "Bleed Settings" in the "Pre-Press" tab: I've checked "Use Document Bleeds". And the document bleeds are Top, Bottom, Outside: 30pt; Inside: 0pt. And it's not that I'm not seeing the bleed *at all* in my exported PDF, the problem is that I'm seeing *a white background* on the *outside bleed* of the *left pages only* instead of the contents of the *master* page. OTOH, the *normal* page contents are present in the exported PDF. So there's at least a difference in the handling of master pages.

Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I don't understand how this is supposed to be the expected behaviour. :)

I've attached another screenshot showing the scribus document and the resulting PDF, at least on my machine. I've also attached the scribus document and the PDF.

Sorry if this is really a non-issue, but if so, please tell me what I need to do to fix my document.

Ok, i was able to reproduce the problem. Without your sample document there is no way i could have reproduced your issue. That pdf export bug was dependent on master page names and gui language. Unless special conditions were met, all was working as expected here. Sample documents are usually more useful than screenshots for debugging. Issue fixed!
