Tips: Area Visible after Printing and Binding

The green border in the image below is called the "Bleed width". The inner line is called the "Cropped border". The area inside this border will be visible after printing. The outer line is called the "Bleed border". The area between this and the cropped border may be visible if the page is off center during printing or trimming.

The border further inward from the "Cropped border" is called the "Default border". This is a guideline for the position of the frames.

The book will be trimmed along the "Cropped border", but the position may be inaccurate by several millimeters. The bleed width is primarily there for this purpose. If drawing a picture that will extend to the edge of the page, draw as far as the "Bleed width".

Make sure that all content you do not want to lose is drawn inside the "Cropped border". Note that some of the printed content may still disap­pear depending on binding specifications such as the binding point. Make sure that all important content, such as dialog and the characters' expressions, is drawn inside the default border.
