Bleed: why a white sliver shows at the trim

Art must run a few millimetres past where the knife cuts.

Bleed means colour or photo reach the paper edge. KDP wants about 3 mm extra in the file; otherwise you get a white hairline.

Turn it on in the workshop if images go to the edge. The cover always bleeds: Path D.

Do it in the factory
