Question

Do I need to set-up my mug files with bleeds?

Answer

No, mug files do not use bleed. Instead, build your artwork at the exact print-area size for your mug.

Mug sizePrint area
11 oz Mug8.5" x 3"
15 oz Mug9" x 4"
  • Submit your file at exactly one of these sizes.
  • Do not add bleed around the artwork.

Matching the print-area size keeps your design aligned as it wraps around the mug.
