ButchZ Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I use AF Photo to edit my photos, create templates for sublimation. When I add a bleed, and make the underlying circle (RED) 0.25 in or 1/4 in larger, is the bleed a full 0.25 in (1/4 in) all the way around the blue circle or is it 0.125 in (1'8 in) around the circle? See photo for details on what im asking In the photo, Im making a template for cork coasters to sublimate My printers margins are shown in Red. The blue circle is the actual "Safe image area" The red is a 1/4 in bleed (0.25in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 The bleed area, the red border around the blue circle will be 0.125" Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

ButchZ Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 So, if I add a 0.125" bleed, thats exactly what Ill get around the image area? Thank you for the reply and waiting on the clarification as I dint understand fully your reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 A visual explanation is probably best so... As you can see the size of the red circle to create the bleed area is 4.25" and this generates a bleed width of 0.125" As you can see the size of the red circle to create the bleed area is 4.50" and this generates a bleed width of 0.25" Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...
