Crop/Trim Edge

 

This is the edge of the final printed product. For a standard business card the trim dimensions would be 85 x 55mm.

 

 

Bleed Edge

 

Images should be pushed out to the bleed edge, 5mm past the trim edge on every side.

 

 

Safe Edge

 

Text and other key elements should be placed within the safe edge, which is 5mm inside the trim edge.

This will ensure that no text is cut off due to variations in the trimming process.

 

 

Correct Sample

 

The background image has been extended 5mm past the Trim Edge and the text is within the Safe Edge.

 

 

Incorrect Sample

 

The background image has not been extended to the Bleed Edge. This could result in strips of white around the edges of the business card.
