Bleed Area

What is the “bleed” area? The bleed area is the four edges of the media that are trimmed off during production to achieve edge-to-edge prints.

The templates below are in PDF format, which can easily be manipulated with Adobe software. These templates are beneficial for visualizing bleed or trimming areas. Some of you will decide not to use the templates, so it’s a good thing we employ real graphic artists to ensure your prints turn outright.
