Front Store
When designing a product in the Product Designer Tool, the bleed, safe, and cut lines appear in different colors to guide accurate placement:
- Bleed Line (Blue): Extend artwork/background beyond this line to prevent white edges after trimming.
- Safety Line (Green): Keep important elements within this line to ensure they are not cut off.
- Cut Line (Red): Represents the final trim edge; elements outside may be trimmed.
The cut line and safety line are also visible in the preview and downloaded files for reference.
