--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Thought about closing WFM, but to new for UX discussion related to bug 99525.

In Draw you can size the page larger than final desired print size, set margin
to zero.  You can layout trim marks, and registration marks on a Master page
from main menu's  View -> Master mode. Also trivial to allow for bleed and
compose slugs outside the trim marks.

You have full control to configure the page, margin and spacing to object while
laying out the document.

Actual CMYK would not be controlled from within LibreOffice--rather use a
"print to file" format supporting CMYK.  Or a print driver capable of splitting
out the CMYK.

It is not as convenient as some dedicated DTP programs, and there is no ability
to easily toggle printer markup.  But kind of believe that doing more than that
is going to be beyond scope of project.
