Template Guidelines
Bleed is the area that is cut off after printing process has been completed
Bleed area
A bleed area is when an image extends beyond the cut line of the printed product. If your image is not white on all four sides, you MUST include an extra 1/8″ (0.125″) on each side of the card to be trimmed after the printing is complete. For example, if you are ordering a 3.5″ x 2″ business cards, you would set your artwork size to 3.75″ x 2.25″.
Cut line
The cut line is where your product will be trimmed to, once the bleed area is removed. But please remember, due to cutting tolerances of printing, the cut may shift up to 1/16 of an inch in any direction.
Safe area
A safe area is a margin within the cut line which will prevent text or type from being cut off. It is imperative that no text or essential parts of your artwork come within 1/8″ of the trim line. Due to mechanical tolerance during the cutting process, any content within 1/8″ of the trim line may be cut off.
