Frequently Asked Questions
Bleed is the part of a design that extends beyond the trim edge of a page. It's a small extra margin of your design that gets trimmed off after printing. This ensures that your final printed product has no unprinted white edges if the paper shifts slightly during the cutting process.
Adding bleed is essential if your design has colors or images that are meant to go all the way to the edge of the paper. Cutting machines are precise but not perfect, and a small margin of error can leave an unattractive white sliver on the edge. A bleed area gives the printer a buffer, guaranteeing a clean, professional edge-to-edge finish.
The standard bleed size for most print jobs in the US is 0.125 inches (1/8 inch) on all sides. In many other regions, 3mm is the standard. Always check with your printing service for their specific requirements, as some products or processes may need a different amount.
An AI bleed tool works by intelligently extending the content of your image. It analyzes the pixels at the edges of your design and generates new pixels that match the existing colors, textures, and patterns. This process, often called pixel expansion or mirroring, creates a seamless and natural-looking extension of your background to serve as the bleed area.
Yes, our tool is specifically designed to add bleed to finished image files like JPGs and PNGs. This is helpful when you don't have the original design file or don't have access to complex design software. Simply upload your image, and the tool will generate a new, print-ready file with the bleed included.
This tool focuses on creating the bleed area by extending your image. It does not automatically add crop marks, which are the lines that indicate where to trim the paper. Your printing service will typically add the necessary crop marks when they prepare your file for production.
