Every professional print job needs proper bleed and crop marks. Printery adds them automatically so your prints come out perfect — no white edges, no content cut off.

Small lines printed at the corners of a page that show the printer exactly where to cut. They define the final trim size of your printed piece.
Extra area beyond the trim line where your design extends. This ensures no white edges appear if the cut is slightly off — which always happens in production.
