塗り足し作成

BleedMakerは4辺すべてに指定した塗り足し量だけページの寸法を拡張します。2つの方法: スケールは既存のコンテンツを拡大して塗り足しゾーンを埋めます。ソリッドカラーは塗り足し領域をフラットカラーで塗りつぶします。ソースファイルに塗り足しが組み込まれていない場合、面付け前のプリプレスステップとして使用してください。

Scale:Enlarges content to fill bleed area. Best for photos and full-bleed designs. The content is scaled up proportionally — edge content may shift slightly inward.
Solid Color:Fills bleed zone with a flat color. Best for designs with solid-color edges (white, black, or colored borders). Original content stays at original size.
Bleed Color:The color used to fill the bleed area in Solid Color mode. Match it to your design's edge color — typically white (#ffffff) or the dominant border color.

Options Guide
Bleed Amount

Set the bleed extension distance — how far artwork extends past the trim edge.

Industry standard: 1/8" (9pt / 3.175mm) for US commercial print, 3mm (8.5pt) for metric markets. Extended bleed (5mm / 14pt) for large-format or packaging. Quick presets set common values instantly. The bleed is added equally on all four sides.

Method

Choose how the bleed area is generated — by scaling content outward or filling with a solid color.

Scale: enlarges the page content proportionally so it extends past the original trim edge into the bleed zone. Preserves vectors and raster quality. Best for full-bleed photographs, illustrations, and designs where edge content can be slightly cropped. Solid Color: fills the bleed area with a chosen color while keeping the original content at its original size. Best for designs with solid-colored borders, white backgrounds, or when scaling would distort important edge content.

Pages

Specify which pages to process using a range expression.

Examples: 'all' = every page. '1-5' = pages 1 through 5. '1,3,5' = specific pages. '1-10 odd' = odd pages 1-9. '2-20 even' = even pages 2-20. 'last' = last page. 'last-2' = third from last. Ranges are 1-based. Combine with commas: '1-5, 8, 12-15'.

Configurations & Variations
5mm Bleed (Mirror Method)

Enter 5 mm (14.17 pt) in all four bleed fields. BleedMaker extends artwork into the bleed zone by mirroring edge pixels outward, producing a seamless extension on solid colors and gradients. 5 mm is the standard bleed for commercial packaging; 3 mm (9 pt) is sufficient for most general commercial print work.

Expert Tip

BleedMaker synthetically extends artwork into the bleed zone by mirroring edge pixels. It rescues files delivered with no bleed. 3 mm is the minimum for commercial print; 5 mm for packaging.

Synthetic bleeds work well on solid colours and gradients but produce visible artefacts on photos or patterns that have hard edges at the trim line.
