CD/DVD GUIDELINES

SAFETY MARGINS:
Text and important images must fall within the red boxes. Extending important elements beyond these lines can cause problem during cutting folding and assembly parts of images on text can end up being trimmed off or fall directly on a fold.

CUT LINES
This is approximately where you artwork will be trimmed. Keeping all text and important images in side the 1/8th inch safety margins will prevent their unintended loss during cutting.

Bleeds
this area is going to be completely trimmed away during the cutting process. Only solid colors background images that intentionally run off the page should extend through this area. Having bleeds ensures that you artwork will not have a thin white border around it .

FOLDS
Be very careful when running any text or important image open folds. Text, especially text under 9pt. Can hard to read if it is falling on a fold.
