Designing and ordering marketing materials in the Salonround Design & Print Studio? Then it is important to take the bleed and the safety margin into account. In this article, we explain what that means.
The bleed and the safety margin explained
When you order marketing materials through the Design & Print Studio, these materials are printed in high quality. To achieve the best result, every design includes a bleed and a safety margin.
Bleed
The bleed is the area around your design that is trimmed off during cutting. Fill the bleed completely with the background (color) so that small cutting deviations do not leave white edges.
Safety margin
Place all important elements—such as text and logos—within the safety margin. This prevents essential parts from being cut off due to small cutting deviations.
Showing and hiding the bleed and safety margin
To maintain a clear overview, you can show and hide the bleed and safety margin while designing.
