Questions
- What is bleed?
- Extra background beyond the cut line. Cutting is never perfectly exact, so the background runs past the line and no white edge shows after cutting.
- Does the Designee editor add bleed?
- Yes. Designs made in Designee get bleed and crop marks in the print PDF; this guide is for designs made in other apps.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files and text never leave your device. It works without an account.
