What is print bleed?

This extra margin allows for printing to the edge of a document without leaving unprinted edges. When a document or image is printed with bleed, it is printed on a larger sheet of paper and then trimmed down to the desired size.

This process ensures that the ink coverage extends beyond the final trim edge, preventing any white edges from appearing in the final product, especially if the trimming is not perfectly precise.

The bleed line is typically set around the perimeter of the document layout and is usually about 1/8 inch (3mm) to 1/4 inch (6mm) wide, depending on the printer's specifications or the complexity of the design.

Designers must extend the background colors or images to the edge of the bleed zone to ensure continuous coverage. It's crucial for any material where the color, image, or design is intended to reach the edges of the printed page.

From planning and filing to the completion of printed matter, printing must go through many procedures, combined with the professional skills of countless people, such as graphic designers, commercial photographers, copywriters, typewriters, artists, color separation technicians, printing technicians, Public workers, printing technicians, bookbinding, varnishing and various processing technicians, etc., without any one, can not successfully complete the printed matter, so they are all important contributors.
