Full Bleed Digital Scrapbook Prints
Jun 26 2009, 11:40 PM EDT
We have had many questions about what is a "full bleed" print. This is a major factor in digital scrapbooking, both for the designer as well as the customer. Here goes....Full Bleed: Printing term used when an image or inked area extends to the edge of all four sides of the printed piece. Better known as "borderless" . “Any printer, regardless of the type of printer, cannot print a border-less 12x12 without cutting something off. The area that is going to be cut off is called a bleed. There is a lot of discussion about bleed in the scrapbook communities, because people want exactly what they design. The problems that are the most apparent come into play when designs have very small edges or borders on the outside of the print. These cause problems because a 1/16th trim on one edge and a 1/32 trim on another (caused by paper feed or print head alignment) make these borders look uneven. These can easily be fixed just by adjusting your border size. If you have larger borders 1/4” we can adjust the print position (a small 1/16" or smaller edge is still trimmed) and no visible cut is noticed. We pride ourselves in providing the best print on the market. We use the most Archival Paper (fuji crystal archive) and have the highest quality printer which we specifically optimize for scrapbook pages our optimization (sharpening and contrast adjustments) along with a minimal trim provide the best print possible." -Rex Allen www.scrappingsimply.com Do you find this valuable? |
