: Indesign page size Using InDesign, I formatted one of my books as an 8x10, and although I placed the headers slightly above the safe zone and far from the bleed and trim lines, once printed
Using InDesign, I formatted one of my books as an 8x10, and although I placed the headers slightly above the safe zone and far from the bleed and trim lines, once printed by Lightning Source, the header was way too close to the final trim. I also noticed that the final trim size for my ARC was not exactly 8x10 but a tad smaller.
My question is... should I set my page size to 8.25 x 10.25 without adding a visual bleed? If so, what would be the correct settings?

You should set the page size for the size it will be trimmed out and then add bleeds. The trim line is where it is cut. The bleed line is completely off the page to cover any adjustments when the page is trimmed.
It sounds like maybe you put the information too close to the trim line (edge of document).
