CD/DVD GUIDELINES

Safety Margins: Text and important images must fall within the red boxes. Extending important elements beyond these lines can cause problems during cutting, folding, and assembly. Parts of images or text can end up being trimmed off or fall directly on a fold.

Cut Lines: This is approximately where your artwork will be trimmed. Keeping all text and important images inside 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 or foreground images that intentionally run off the page should extend through this area. having bleeds ensures that your artwork will not have a thin white border around it.

Folds: Be very careful when running any text or important image oven folds. Text, especially text under 9 p.t. can be hand to read if it is falling on a fold.

Free Write Family

My family is very nice most of the time. Sometimes we will disagree about certain things but most of the time I get along with them. They are southern people, my grandmother is from Columbia, South Carolina and my grandfather is from Danville, Virginia. Every year I have to go to 2 family reunions one in Columbia, South Carolina and one in Danville, Virginia. The reunions are fun and the food is fun, but my family is all around cool.
