Basic Layout Information:

A quick overview of Modern Postcard's trim, bleed, borders and image requirements. For more detailed information choose your layout application.

  • Bleed: 1/16" (.0625 of an inch) will be trimmed off each side of your product
  • Borders: Borders should be .25" thick from the bleed edge (3/16" or .1875" from trim). 3/16" is minimum border recommended.
  • Safe Area:
    • Elements too close to or over the trim edge may trim into or leave a visible leak.
    • Borders thinner than 3/16" from bleed edge may appear uneven when trimmed.
    • Images bordering the trim edge may cause a leak on final cards. Images should "bleed" off the page.
  • Images: CMYK @ 355dpi (1200dpi for Bitmaps)
  • Postal regulations: If your cards will be mailed, please ensure that your layout complies with the USPS Postal Regulations.
