Question
Do I need to add bleed to my poster file?
Answer
Yes. Add 0.125 inches of bleed on every side so trimming never leaves a white edge.
| Trim size | Set file up at |
|---|---|
| 18" x 24" | 18.25" x 24.25" |
| 24" x 36" | 24.25" x 36.25" |
- Extend background artwork past the trim line into the bleed
- Keep important text 0.125" inside the trim as a safe margin
- A quick file review before printing catches missed bleed and low resolution
