• Yes, a 0.2" white border is ok:  There will be no printing in the border/margin 0.2" from each side of the final size.  If there are colors going to the edge of the final size, the provided file will be cropped 0.2" each side, and the print product will show a border or margin the same color as the paper. The file submitted does not require a bleed.
• No, I want the colors to print to the edge of the page:  Files with background colors or graphics at the edge of the print product will not show the white margin.  We will print on a larger piece of paper and cut it down to size.  If you choose this option, the file needs to be provided correctly with a 0.125" bleed on each side (or 0.25" each dimension).  If not, the page will be cut down to a size slightly smaller than the size you chose to avoid the white edges. The file submitted will require a bleed.

Folding and Scoring

• Typically folded only (no scoring)
• Exception:  If the file has dark solid backgrounds or heavy ink coverage (for example: rich black or dark backgrounds), we recommend scoring the paper before folding it to avoid visible paper cracking

• Requires scoring (creating the crease line for easy folding) before folding to avoid paper cracking
• Choose to have us score only (you fold manually) or both score and fold by machine
