it also serves to add bleeding to a project<\/strong>. To do this you must create a file expanding the measurements on each side by 3mm.<\/p>\nFor example, if you are going to design a brochure with size A5 (148 x210), ideally you would create a document of:<\/p>\n
Height<\/strong>: 3 mm + 3 mm + 148 mm base = 154 mm of final size.<\/p>\nWidth<\/strong>: 3 mm + 3 mm + 210 mm base = 216 mm of final size.<\/p>\nIf you have previously created the document, you can perform the indentation in<\/p>\n
PhotoShop by enlarging the canvas size. To do this, go to\u00a0 \u201cImage\u201d > \u201cCanvas Size\u201d<\/strong> and add 6 mm in both the height and width of the document.<\/p>\nIn this way, you have successfully added 3 mm of margin to each side of the design<\/strong>.<\/p>\nMake sure you don\u2019t enlarge the image but expand the space on the sides so you can set the right cut lines<\/strong> so that guillotine can cut the design without cropping the image or leaving white edges.<\/p>\n<\/span>Conclusion<\/span><\/h3>\nDefining print bleed is a really simple step, however, it is of great importance when making professional print products with a good finish and high quality.<\/p>\n

When printing our designs correctly, we must add a safety margin on each side to prevent clipping on the background, images, or other problems with the final format. This safety area is usually known as the printing or imprint bleeding area.
