How much should be the bleed area for a banner?
Question
How much bleed area should I keep for a banner size of 760*1200 mm in Corel Draw or Illustrator any of the two or both?
Accepted Answer
The cutting of banners is more artesanal than lets say some flyers, you do not have a paper cutter board, but a razor. Sometimes is cutted by hand.
So you need to leave more than the average bleed for printing. I would say 1-1.5cm is ok.
You can ask for the borders to be folded and ironed to the back side. You really do not need more that this 1 cm, becouse, although this folding can be several centimiters width, depending on the banner's size, they can simply leave a blank space of another 4 cm arround.
