Three Important printing layout Tips:

1. Bleed Area:

The very edges of the document are called
the bleed area. To prevent an unwanted white border from
showing at the edge of your document, be sure to extend
any background colors or design elements all the way to the
edge.

2. Crop Area: 

This is the finished size of the business card.
The actual cut happens close to the trim line, but due to the
mechanical tolerances involved in printing, the actual cut can
happen anywhere from the bleed area to the safe margin.
This is why it is important to keep your text and important
images within the safe margin.

3. Type Safety Margin: 

Please remember to keep all important
information, like names, addresses, phone numbers or logos
within the Type safety margin to ensure that they aren’t cut
off when your document is trimmed.
