Full-Bleed
Printing that extends to the very edges of the paper with no white margins.
Detailed Explanation
Full-bleed printing produces documents where color, images, or text extend all the way to the edges of the paper with no white margin. This typically requires either: (1) printing on oversized paper (like SRA3 for A3 output) and trimming to final size, or (2) a copier with edge-to-edge printing capability. Full-bleed is essential for professional marketing materials, brochures, photos, and presentations where edge-to-edge coverage creates a more polished appearance. Standard copiers cannot print full-bleed as they require a small unprintable margin for paper handling, but professional production copiers often include this capability.
Examples
- Professional brochures
- Marketing flyers
- Photo prints
- Business cards (with trimming)
