Printing with Bleeds

Bleeds are required in all artwork. Add quarter of an inch (.25") to each dimension to allow for cutting. For example, a 4” X 6” postcard with full bleed, the image size should be submitted at 4.25” x 6.25” (red box above).

.125" (1/8”) on each edge of the card will be trimmed off during the cutting process. This will leave you a 4” X 6” standard post card (black box above).

Your type (text) should be .125" (1/8”) inside the cut box on each side, represented by the blue safety box.

If your artwork requires a white border, please see "Printing with Borders."
