Bleed Explained
Bleed areas on artwork ensure (when printing) the ink is applied beyond the page edge, so when pages are cut to size, colour continues to the edge. Without bleed, white lines may appear around the edges of your artwork. For more information regarding bleed and ensuring your files are correctly set for print click here.
