What is a bleed?

A bleed is extra area outside of your document that is trimmed off to insure proper cuts. In simple terms - your background should go off an 8th of an inch more than your actual print size. Bleed is not required unless it is specified under the product description. You should download our pre-approved templates to ensure that your job is designed properly.

We require bleed on business cards.

Also, please keep your text at least 1/4" away from the edge of the piece. This way your text is in a "safe" area.
