Request quotesHow we produce the bleed
We draw the same image a second time, through a mirrored transform, clipped to the bleed ring. No new pixel data, no resampling, no colour conversion — the RIP still receives the original. Content-aware and generative bleed are permanently out of scope: a tool that invents edge detail cannot also claim it left the artwork alone.
