Exporting Multiple Artboards with Bleed

[lexislav]

I have found this question marked as dead, but is not dead for me (and anyone trying to use AD for press)

 

Exporting single artboard with bleed works.

But in tutorials of AD is suggested to create a design using multiple artboards, like the tri-fold leaflet. (the "Artboards: Exporting and Printing" tutorial, Bookcover tutorial)

By tutorial, I should group them and the make a slice for the group and then export it as single page. 

But I am not be able to include a bleed at all, whatever I try. (and I was hoping for other benefits of this attitude as between artboards cropmarks to mark folding etc. :-/)

 

Is there any workaround? Is there any way to export multiple artboards as a single page and keep the bleed?

Or the autor of tutorial… maybe… never actually print anything :-) ? In that case I suggest to remake those tutorials or delete them as they may be quite missleading.

 

Any suggestions would be very, vere, very much appreciated, thank you.

Only thing I can think of would be to create a second document, a single real page, and then copy/paste the art board document to it.

 

I dislike the art board concept enough I avoid them. However, increasing the first art board and copying the other two art boards to should also work.
